Fiksu creating great Boston jobs
Tuesday, May 29th, 2012The Boston Business Journal recently bestowed an award on Fisksu for creating great Boston jobs.
The creator of a mobile app user acquisition platform was named one of the Best Places to Work in Massachusetts by the Journal.
The survey project was launched in January by the Boston Business Journal in conjunction with market research firm Quantum Workplace of Omaha, NE. Companies were evaluated on the results of more than 18,000 employee-satisfaction surveys. Employees answered questionnaires that addressed such factors as their pride in the company, company encouragement, support and recognition of achievement and relationships with co-workers and supervisors. The results were analyzed and scored by assigning points to each question.
The honor recognizes Fiksu’s achievements in creating a positive work environment that attracts and retains employees through a combination of employee satisfaction, working conditions and company culture.
Fiksu was one of over 400 companies to qualify for consideration based on a two-stage nomination process and the results of employee-satisfaction surveys taken throughout March and April.
“The past 12 months have been fantastic for Fiksu as we’ve experienced rapid momentum and growth, a credit to the outstanding team that we’ve assembled,” said Micah Adler, chief executive officer, Fiksu. “We’ve worked hard to build a culture of innovation, collaboration and excellence, and are honored to be recognized by one of Boston’s leading publications for our ongoing commitment to our employees.”
“Our Best Places to Work event will again recognize the importance of cultivating a great workplace culture as a competitive advantage,” said Chris McIntosh, publisher of the Boston Business Journal. “Companies on our list can be justifiably proud of creating a high level of workplace satisfaction during an economy where traditional rewards like big raises and bonuses aren’t as easy to give. In good times and in bad, our results validate how the creation of the right corporate culture can create powerful business advantages. Employees are proud to work for companies that are about more than just business.”
