So what makes a great place to work?
Check out WorkHuman - when it comes to having a great working environment this Irish tech company takes the cake!
The Parkwest based business has just been named as the best place to work in Ireland by the Great Place to Work Institute. It has also placed at #39 on the list for Best Workplaces in Europe - from a list of over 2,000 companies.
So what do they do differently, according to their website they say;
"We RESPECT the full human.
We encourage and recognizeIMAGINATION.
We are strong supporters of DETERMINATION.
We thrive on and inspire INNOVATION.
We’re proud of our award-winning culture. Why? Because it means we’re doing something right. Our employees love working here. We encourage our people to share their ideas and suggestions, and we act on them. It’s that simple, and crowdsourced recognition from outside parties such as Great Place to Work and The Boston Globe confirm we are on the right track.
We value the whole human – not just what you bring to the office every day, but everything about you and who you are. People are empowered to be themselves and do the best work of their lives with us. We offer a competitive suite of benefits and compensation, but, more importantly, we offer work-life balance, flexibility, and a true work human environment. To be the best employee you can be, you first need to be your best self.
We know compensation is much more than a salary – and our benefit package delivers.
We have a competitive suite of benefits and compensation packages which includes generous time off, robust health insurance options, and more. From paid maternity leave to floating holidays – we offer packages that support you (and your family) in all aspects of your life.
Enjoy balance with our flexible work environment
We know you have a life outside the office – like your family and friendships, your health, and all the other responsibilities that life throws your way. We get it. And we pride ourselves in offering a supportive and flexible environment so you can balance it all.
Get and give recognition with our Gratitudes program
We live our values and that includes being superusers of our own recognition program, Gratitudes . Give awards. Get recognized. Feel appreciated.
Give back through our Workhuman Gives program
We believe in giving back and offer opportunities to volunteer, and we bring these volunteer activities, fundraisers, and sponsorship opportunities in-house. Workhuman encourages and supports our employees getting involved in the charities of their choice. We want to do good in the world and want to provide you with the opportunity to do the same.
Help us improve our product with Workhuman® innovation
Innovation is one of our values and we encourage all our employees to submit their ideas to move our industry forward through our Workhuman Innovations program. Finalists present their ideas related to product, services, or processes in front of the company. Winners earn an incredible trip and perhaps see their idea implemented in our product, helping us and all our customers, too – pretty cool, huh?
Kick back and have some Workhuman Fun
We know how hard our people work, so we like to celebrate – often. International Women’s Day, Chili cookoffs, Halloween costume contests, holiday parties, and homemade hot cocoa bars are just some of the ways we have fun at work. Love what you do and have fun while doing it.
Be your best with Workhuman Wellness
Enjoy a chair massage, refresh in our WorkHuman room, join a yoga class, or grab a healthy snack in the Workhuman café. Want more? Join our employee-created running club or rugby teams, sample a smoothie or get your steps in through our Wellness Contest. Your health and wellness is a top priority for us – we want to support the whole human.
Amazing space
We couldn’t be prouder of our office environment – just like our culture, it’s vibrant, colorful, flexible, and fun. We pride ourselves in encouraging collaboration and creativity through our custom-built space. Meet up in the Workhuman Café for a latte, unwind in our game area, or tuck into a restaurant-style booth for an impromptu meeting. You spend a lot of time in the office, why not love the space you’re in?
Be our next human – be recognized. Love your job.
