Lanham, MD, May 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Thompson Creek, a family-owned window and home improvement company serving the Mid-Atlantic region, has been named one of Inc. magazine’s Best Workplaces for 2019. This is the second consecutive year Thompson Creek has been recognized on this list.
The list is the result of a wide-ranging and comprehensive measurement of private American companies that have created exceptional workplaces through vibrant cultures, deep employee engagement, and stellar benefits. Collecting data on nearly 2,000 submissions, Inc. singled out 346 finalists.
The strongest engagement scores came from companies that prioritize the most human elements of work. These companies are leading the way in employee recognition, performance management, and diversity. It’s a different playbook from a decade ago, when too many firms used the same template: free food, open work environments, and artifacts of “fun.”
“It’s an honor to be recognized as a great workplace by Inc. Magazine for two consecutive years. It is also a tremendous opportunity for us to understand what our employees are really thinking and how we can make this company an even better workplace. Our customers benefit, too, since engaged and contented employees who enjoy coming to work result in better customer service, better products and better installations.”
While researching the finalists, Inc. and Quantum saw distinct themes:
•99 percent provide health insurance—and some cover the cost.
•49 percent allow employees to bring pets to work.
•65 percent take employees to offsite retreats to relax and recharge.
•16 percent offer paid sabbaticals to reward length of service.
“With today’s tight labor market, building a great corporate culture is more important than ever,” says Inc. magazine editor in chief James Ledbetter. “The companies on Inc.’s Best Workplaces list are setting an example that the whole country can learn from.”In addition to a competitive compensation and benefits package, Thompson Creek employees have countless opportunities to have fun together and celebrate our achievements. Entry-level employees can begin and grow their careers here, while experienced new hires can find a place in management or leadership roles within our growing company.
