LOUISVILLE, Colo., May 06, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CableLabs, the leading innovation and research and development lab for the cable industry, today announced the organization was named one of The Denver Post's Top Workplaces for 2021. Additionally, the company and its leadership was named a winner of several prominent industry honors.
“Our ranking among the top workplaces in Colorado is an incredible distinction. At CableLabs, we recognize that it is our team — not our technologies — that truly drives innovation, and this recognition illustrates our commitment to the satisfaction, growth and achievement of our employees,” said Phil McKinney, president and CEO at CableLabs. “I am tremendously proud to lead a creative, passionate and hard-working team that adheres to our core values of integrity, individuals, innovation and impact to invent new ways to make broadband faster and better.”
CableLabs was joined by 54 other winning companies in the midsized (150-499 employees) category. Organizations with 50 or more employees in Colorado — public, private, nonprofit or governmental — were eligible to participate in The Denver Post’s Top Workplaces 2021 contest. The list of winners is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner Energage, LLC. The anonymous survey uniquely measures 15 culture drivers that are critical to the success of any organization: including alignment, execution, and connection, to name a few.
"During this very challenging time, Top Workplaces has proven to be a beacon of light for organizations, as well as a sign of resiliency and strong business performance," said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. "When you give your employees a voice, you come together to navigate challenges and shape your path forward. Top Workplaces draw on real-time insights into what works best for their organization, so they can make informed decisions that have a positive impact on their people and their business."
