Ultimate Software, a provider of human capital management (HCM) solutions in the cloud, came out on top as it was named the #1 Best Large Workplace in Technology. Great Place to Work used its Trust Index Employee Survey for ranking the best places in technology to work. The survey had employees answer questions about how what makes for a great workplace, such as opportunities for career development, risk-taking, work-life balance, financial and non-financial rewards, transparency in its communications to employees, business vision, and workplace camaraderie. All of the companies that were surveyed were ones that identified themselves as part of the tech industry and evaluated by Great Place to Work. The companies with the highest survey results were then divided into small, medium, and large companies. Ultimate Software was at the top of the list for large companies, but more well known companies such as Yelp and Google also cracked the top ten. The top three in the small company category were Academic Works, Inc., Square Root, and Squirrels, while the top three spots in the medium company category went to xMatters, HubSpot, and Bounce Exchange. In an interview with Business Wire, Ultimate Software CEO Scott Scherr had this to say: You can check out the whole list of 2016 best tech workplaces here.
