Collecting data from thousands of submissions, Inc. singled out 429 honorees this year. Each nominated company took part in an employee survey, conducted by Quantum Workplace, on topics including management effectiveness, perks, and fostering employee growth. The organization’s benefits were also audited to determine the company’s overall score and ranking.

Blue Signal has worked hard to meet the changing needs of its workforce this last year. Founder and Executive VP Matt Walsh puts it best: “we take pride in our strong employee retention, and a large part of our success is due to our ingrained culture. Our culture is centered on five core values: excellence, transparency, integrity, commitment, and respect. Where only one in 10 in our industry go on to a career in recruiting, our tenure is well above the industry average. We have ensured that our company culture is prioritized and unwavering with consistent check-ins and virtual events that help us build community across our remote, nationwide workforce.”

“The definition of a positive workplace has changed drastically over the past year,” says Inc. magazine editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “Stocked fridges and nap pods were no longer perks many companies could rely on once work went remote. So, this year’s list is even more important as it reveals organizations that continue to enrich the lives of its employees amid a pandemic.”
