SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The GRIN team is proud to announce our inclusion into the 2022 class of Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies.
We couldn’t have this honor without an incredible team dedicated to delivering a first-class experience to our customers and each other. And on May 17, we’re excited to celebrate Certification Nation Day with the community of people-first organizations across the U.S.
Brian Mechem, president of GRIN, is proud of the work environment he and CEO Brandon Brown have created since founding the company in 2014.
“I’m fortunate to work hands-on with so many of our teams day to day, and I think the culture those teams have helped build is accountable, high performing, super fun, and really leans into the core values that Brandon and I envisioned from day one,” he says.
Great Place to Work (GPTW) Certification™ is recognized worldwide by employees and employers alike and is the global benchmark for identifying outstanding employee experiences.
“Certified companies put employees first,” said GPTW CEO Michael C. Bush. “Thriving employees increase revenue and profit and provide market-leading customer experiences. I hope that Certification Nation Day can inspire other executives to create and sustain employee-first cultures.”
According to the GPTW survey, 95% of employees said GRIN was a great place to work, compared to 57% in a typical U.S.-based company.
Employees also scored GRIN exceptionally high in the following categories:
GPTW research shows that job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified™ workplace. Employees are also 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits, and have a fair chance at promotion.
“Great Place to Work Certification™ isn’t something that comes easily,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of global recognition at GPTW. “It takes ongoing dedication to the employee experience.”
