Upshot was ranked #24 on the Great Place to Work® Rankings: 2011 Best Small & Medium Workplaces Presented by Entrepreneur®. This marks Upshot’s first national recognition among a slew of local and statewide honors for cultivating an exceptional workplace culture.

Upshot was selected among hundreds of companies—across numerous industries—vying for a place on the top 50 list of Small (50–250 employees) and Medium (251–999 employees) Workplaces in America. Companies opted to participate in the selection process, inclusive of an employee survey and an in-depth questionnaire about their programs and company practices. Great Place to Work® then evaluated each application using its unique methodology based on five dimensions: credibility, respect, fairness, pride and camaraderie.

“We are honored to be ranked on the 2011 50 Best Small & Medium Workplaces,” said Brian Kristofek, Upshot President & CEO. “Walking through the doors of Upshot every day and feeling the positive mojo of a great culture and happy, engaged people is very motivating. You feel it immediately, that sense of something exceptional happening here.”
