The Washington Post Names Social Tables to Top Workplaces of 2015
Washington, DC (June 22, 2015) – Social Tables (www.socialtables.com) is pleased to announce that it has been awarded 3rd place in the Small Business Category, and CEO Dan Berger awarded Top Business Leader, in The Washington Post’s Top Workplaces of 2015.
Social Tables is a deliberately developmental organization (DDO), which means we have a maniacal focus on building a deliberate, nurturing environment that empowers and enables every Tabler, says Social Tables CEO & Founder Dan Berger. Our high-performing culture is what makes people want to come and stay here. We believe startups like ours are on a greater mission: to reinvent the modern workplace by creating an immersive and supportive environment.
The Top Workplaces are determined based solely on employee feedback. The employee survey is conducted by WorkplaceDynamics, LLC, a leading research firm on organizational health and employee engagement.
We believe in the power of purpose, says Vice President of People Operations, Sam Cicotello. Every employee has the ability to shape our company, their professional path, and their personal path. That empowerment transpires from communication, transparency, and access to the best resources, and that is what makes Social Tables a Top Workplace.
We know that a great work environment isn’t about the perks – it’s about the people, and the philosophy of trust, transparency and respect, says Cicotello. We expend tremendous amounts of time and effort into hiring the right people, and we make sure they feel valued from the moment they walk in through our doors; from our weekly Breakfast Club to ST Startup Happy Hours, from mandatory GTFO days to our Employee Education Fund, we’ve created a world-class environment that supports each and every member of our family.
The Washington Post published the complete list of Top Workplaces on June 21, 2015. For more information about the Top Workplaces lists and WorkplaceDynamics, please visit www.topworkplaces.com and www.workplacedynamics.com.
