NEW YORK (February 22, 2024) – SevenRooms, a leading marketing and operations platform for the hospitality industry, is honored to be Certified™ by Great Place to Work® for the second year in a row. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at SevenRooms. This year, 91% of SevenRooms employees stated that the company is a great place to work – 34 points higher than the average U.S. company.
Providing innovative, people-centric benefits and creating a culture of care are just some of the reasons why SevenRooms is a great place to work. SevenRooms embraces a remote-first philosophy, fostering a flexible and inclusive work environment that empowers our Roomies to thrive. Employees have the option to work wherever is meaningful to them whether that’s at home, a coffee shop, or one of our global offices.
Last year, SevenRooms continued its Fresh Start program which provides new employees with the time they need to recharge before embarking on a new journey. Introduced in 2022, the initiative gives all new hires their first two weeks of employment as paid time off when starting at SevenRooms. From its inception, 100% of new hires have used Fresh Start, taking part in a variety of activities including taking dream vacations, spending precious time with family, learning new skills, and more.
In addition to SevenRooms’ flexible work policy, SevenRooms pairs its Fresh Start program plan with benefits like unlimited PTO and the ‘Roomies Choice’ stipend offering every employee $200 a month to spend on whatever they choose (childcare, home office set-up, dining out, a vacation), free memberships to health and wellbeing apps, and training and development opportunities aimed at personal and professional growth.
“We’re honored to be certified as a Great Place to Work® for the second year in a row,” said Paul McCarthy, Chief People Officer at SevenRooms. “At SevenRooms, we believe in recognizing the unique experiences and potential of each person who works with us. This enables us to develop a culture where everyone feels valued and empowered to make decisions that support the company’s growth and their own circumstances.”
Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.
“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition of Great Place to Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that SevenRooms stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”
According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.
