"Maintaining a strong company culture despite rapid expansion and organizational growth has been top-of-mind since we founded RiseSmart over a decade ago," said RiseSmart Founder, President and CEO, Sanjay Sathe. "Our organization has experienced countless benefits from having an engaged workforce, which is why we've implemented programs like the High Five Program, Roundtable Lunch with the CEO, and RiseSmart Town Halls to create an atmosphere where employees are recognized for their successes and are involved in larger-scale company happenings."

Outstanding small and mid-sized employers ? as identified by their employees ? are substantially more likely to report work experiences linked to retention, innovation and good customer service, according to research by Great Place to Work. The winning organizations also are more likely than their peers to maintain a healthy organizational culture as they grow larger and more complex.

"The Best Small & Medium workplaces are laying the groundwork for future success by building trust, cooperation and leadership credibility. All of these enhance business performance and create a positive environment for doing business," said Michael Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work.

Survey results indicate that 100% of RiseSmart employees feel that people care about each other within the organization, 99% of employees believe the company has a great work atmosphere, 98% of employees look forward to coming to work and 98% of employees believe they are appropriately challenged.

Employees completed a Trust Indextm survey with more than 50 questions assessing pride, camaraderie, executive effectiveness, innovation, benefits, professional development and other elements of a great workplace.

Survey results from eligible companies had a 6 percent margin of error, at most, with a 95 percent confidence level.
