Company's Commitment to Employee Satisfaction and Well-being Recognized by Fortune Media and Great Place To Work® for a 6th Time

BOULDER, CO, UNITED STATES, August 28, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Great Place To Work^® and Fortune magazine have selected Ascend, Inc. (formerly HRMS Solutions) for the 2024 Fortune Best Small Workplaces™ List. This is Ascend’s sixth time being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at No. 7. Earning that spot means that Ascend truly is one of the best companies to work for in the country.

"We're incredibly proud to be named a Best Small Workplace for the sixth time. This award validates our focus on employee well-being and professional growth, and reflects the hard work and dedication of our team members. Ascend is committed to creating a supportive environment where our employees can thrive," said Pam Parker, SVP Finance. "We're excited to continue building a workplace that prioritizes well-being and work/life flexibility."

The Best Small Workplaces list is highly competitive. To determine the list, Great Place To Work analyzed the survey responses of over 31,000 employees from Great Place To Work Certified™ companies with 10 to 99 U.S. employees.

Ascend's SVP Marketing Sandi Mundt said "Pinch me, I must be dreaming! Ascend just landed at #7 on the Great Place to Work Best Small Workplace list! Seriously, who knew that building a company where everyone feels valued and supported could lead to such amazing recognition?”

Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of the workplace experience. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for employees regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier.

“Some of the strongest work cultures we measure every year come from companies with relatively small headcounts,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “Companies that make this highly competitive list offer the care and support found at companies 10 times their size.”

In addition to making the list for the sixth time as a Best Small Workplace, Ascend has recertified for the ninth time as a Great Place to Work for 2024, with 99% of employees rating Ascend as a great place to work. Ascend also recently debuted on the Inc. 5000 list, coming in at No. 1575 among the 5,000 fastest-growing private American companies for 2024. The organization has demonstrated amazing growth as a services consulting organization and partner while preserving company culture that attracts and retains the best of the best as team members.

“Our journey at Ascend has been nothing short of remarkable. From our recent inclusion on the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America to this magnificent placement on this Fortune Best Small Workplaces™, we're consistently raising the bar,” Ms. Mundt added. “These recognitions are not merely awards; they are validation of our commitment to creating a workplace where people thrive and proof that when you invest in your people and focus on growth, amazing things can happen. Watch out world, Ascend is on fire!"
