For The Second Year in a Row,
Hyperion is Named Best Workplace by Inc.
Las Vegas, NV (May 6, 2020) – Hyperion has been named a best workplace by Inc. magazine’s annual list of the Best Workplaces for 2020. Hitting newsstands May 12 in the May/June 2020 issue, and as part of a prominent Inc.com feature, the list is the result of a wide-ranging and comprehensive measurement of American companies that have created exceptional workplaces through vibrant cultures, deep employee engagement, and stellar benefits.
Collecting data from more than 3,000 submissions, Inc. singled out 389 finalists for this year’s list. Each nominated company took part in an employee survey, conducted by Quantum Workplace, on topics including trust, management effectiveness, perks, and confidence in the future. Inc. gathered, analyzed, and audited the data. Then we ranked all the employers using a composite score of survey results. This year, 73.5 percent of surveyed employees were engaged by their work. 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 is a different playbook from a decade ago, when too many firms used the same template: free food, open work environments, and artifacts of “fun.”
“At Hyperion we have built a culture around the concept of family,” says Kerry McGonigal, CEO of Hyperion. “When you build a culture around rewarding performance, showing appreciation for even the smallest contribution to success, empowering people to do their jobs, and giving everyone a sense of ownership in the company, the concept of family manifests itself.”
“Building a great corporate culture comes only from strong leadership,” says Inc. magazine editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “The companies on Inc.’s Best Workplaces list are setting an example that the whole country can learn from, especially now, when company culture is more important to the workforce than ever.”
While researching the finalists, Inc. and Quantum saw distinct themes:
• 100 percent provide health insurance.
• 50 percent allow employees to bring pets to work.
• 62 percent take employees to offsite retreats to relax and recharge.
• 20 percent offer paid sabbaticals to reward length of service.
