is one of our 2022 Best Places to Work
ON THE ROAD to success, organizations need to know
where they are. That's the motivation behind our annual
Best Places to Work program, which gives employees
the chance to rate their workplace.
For the fourth year running, London Inc. partnered
with human resources management firm Ahria
Consulting to determine the city's top workplaces
based solely on employee survey feedback. Which is
why the Best Places to Work award is so distinguished:
each company's employees exclusively determined the
winners.
And while the 15 organizations named in this issue
are very different - each with its own culture, type of
work and benefits - they're also, in many ways, very
much alike.
The best employers all work to ensure work-life balance
(and yup, most that are able to embrace hybrid
work wholeheartedly). They also give their staffs the
autonomy to do their jobs, provide meaningful and
interesting work, a collegial environment, chances to
learn and grow and good pay and benefits.
But above all else, if there is one thing these organizations
all have in common, it's trust. Employees who
trust their managers give their best work freely, and
their extra effort goes right to the company's bottom
line. Managers who trust their employees allow innovative
ideas to percolate from all levels of the company.
Employees who trust each other report a sense of
camaraderie and even a feeling of being part of a family.
Together, they deliver far more than the sum of their
individual efforts.

pool of more than 90 applicants, and combined, 864
employees work for these 15 standout organizations.
We break out the companies in three different
employer size categories: Small Business (10 to 19
employees); Medium Business (20 to 80 employees); and
Large Business (greater than 80 employees). It's worth
noting that, generally speaking, smaller employers tend
to score higher than midsize employers, and midsize
employers tend to score higher than large employers.
From prolonged shutdowns to workforces that felt
isolated and overwhelmed - you name it, Covid brought
it over the past two-plus years. Still, these companies
managed not just to muddle through, but to become role
models. Congratulations to them all!
