Achievers Recognized as One of Canada's Great Places to Work

TORONTO and SAN FRANCISCO, April 13, 2015 /CNW/ -- Achievers, an Employee Success Platform™ that helps enterprise companies recognize their employees, has been named as one of this year's Best Workplaces in Canada. The Great Places to Work Institute ranked Achievers number 12 out of 50 for Best Medium Workplace, and number 14 out of 50 for Best Workplace for Women.

"Achievers' success is driven by the incredible team of people that make up our business, including our employees, customers, Board, and partners," said Eric Lochner, President & CEO, Achievers. "Our unique culture has defined this company and driven our performance, and it remains our single best advantage as a global organization. It is a tremendous honor to be named as a Best Place to Work and Best Workplace for Women, these awards recognize our incredible team of A-Players that come to work inspired, engaged and motivated every day."

This list of "Best Workplaces in Canada" is compiled by Great Place to Work® Institute Canada. The competition process is based on two criteria: two-thirds of the total score comes from a 58-statement survey completed by a random selection of employees, along with their open-ended comments about their organization; the remaining one-third of the score comes from an in-depth review of the organization's culture, including an evaluation of HR policies and procedures. This year's list received over 300 nominations and over 60,000 employees participated in the 2015 "Best Workplaces in Canada" survey.
