Heartbeat Named to Ad Age Best Places to Work 2022 List, Sixth Consecutive Year With a Workplace Honor

NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Leading healthcare marketing agency Heartbeat has been named to the Ad Age Best Places to Work 2022 List, ranking third overall in the large agency category. It's the second consecutive year, and third overall, that Heartbeat has been named to the prestigious Ad Age listing.

Heartbeat has firmly established itself over the past decade as one of the premier organizations for culture and employee experience, as this latest honor marks the company's sixth straight year with a workplace award from a major industry publication. In addition to previous Best Places to Work selections from Ad Age (2017, 2021), Heartbeat is also a three-time selection to the MM+M Best Places to Work List (2018, 2019, 2021), and was named a Diversity & Inclusion Champion by Med Ad News in 2020.

Ad Age's Best Places to Work awards program is an annual ranking of companies that lead the pack in factors ranging from pay and benefits to corporate culture and leadership. The winners are 50 stand-out companies in advertising, marketing, and media that have excelled over the past year as the ad business rebounded, the talent pool tightened, and the specter of COVID-19 remained omnipresent at work and at home.

As part of the selection process, employers are asked to submit a detailed report on their demographics, policies, practices, philosophies, and core values, while employees participate in a confidential survey that measures how their employer performs in the key areas they care most about. Ad Age's scoring system factors in employee responses on seven official satisfaction areas, including pay, benefits, culture, environment, perks, employee development, and employee engagement.

With Ad Age's list in its 13th year, it remains rare for healthcare-focused agencies to be included?a feat that Heartbeat has now accomplished multiple times, including in 2021 when it was one of only four healthcare marketing agencies to be named, and now in 2022 when it was one of six in the 50-company class.

Widely known for its passionate devotion to company culture, Heartbeat has maintained its dedication to cultivating a uniquely rewarding workplace experience and has committed to establishing itself as the model for diversity, equality, and inclusion in advertising. The agency continues to boast some of the highest diversity, employee satisfaction, and retention rates in the industry?all factors contributing to its continued success in annual Best Place to Work competitions.

"Every moment matters. It's a simple mantra that informs all our cultural decisions and community programs. And when you talk to any Heartbeater, you'll find it's also contagious," noted James Talerico, Heartbeat's President and Executive Creative Director. "In every interaction, from first interview to fifth anniversary, we take care to recognize and celebrate the unique perspective and potential of each person in our community, and to ensure that professional and personal growth is at the core of the Heartbeat experience."
