WALNUT CREEK, CA — Great Place to Work and Fortune magazine have honored Sequoia as one of this year’s Best Workplaces in the Bay Area. This is Sequoia's 1st time being named to this prestigious list, coming in at number 12 out of 75 companies. Earning a spot means that Sequoia is one of the best companies to work for headquartered in the Bay Area.
The Fortune Best Workplaces in the Bay Area award is based on team member feedback collected through one of America’s largest ongoing annual workforce studies of over 1 million team member survey responses and data from companies representing more than 6.1 million U.S. team members. Our survey results showcase that 96% of our team members said Sequoia is a great place to work, which is 39% higher than the average U.S. company.
This recognition wouldn’t be possible without Sequoia’s inspiring team members who make the company culture stand apart. From Rest and Recharge Days off to Purpose time where team members can volunteer and give back to the community, Sequoia strives to embrace these principles to create positive experiences so our team members can continue to love where they work and what they do.
"What makes Sequoia one of the best places to work are our team members. They create an environment of fun and are passionate about what they do. It shows in how they care for each other and their customers. We are inspired every day by our team members. Thank you team for making Sequoia a great place to work!”
The Fortune Best Workplaces in the Bay Area list is highly competitive. Great Place to Work, the global authority on company culture, selected the list using analytics and confidential team member feedback. Companies are only considered if they are a Great Place to Work-Certified™ organization headquartered in the Bay Area.
"As employee demands and expectations have dramatically changed over the past year, these companies have risen to the occasion—and it’s not been easy,” says Kim Peters, executive vice president of global recognition, research & strategic partnerships at Great Place to Work. “Their hard work and dedication to listen to and care for the well-being of every employee, and support them in a way that’s meaningful to all, is the standard all organizations will be held to.”
