CIENCE Honored by Fortune as the Best Workplace for Women 2022

Written by Kim Purcell | Sep 27, 2022

Great Place to Work® and Fortune magazine honored CIENCE as one of the 2022 Best Workplaces for Women. Making its debut on the list this year, CIENCE achieved a top ranking at #6 among other one hundred other distinguished award recipients.

We are dedicated to being a workplace where all of our employees—including our future women leaders—can reach their full potential. Our meritocratic work environment rewards those who drive outcomes for our customers and our employees; all team members are empowered to continuously improve their personal and professional growth, which is one of our core values at CIENCE. — August Keating, Interim CEO of CIENCE 

To determine the Best Workplaces for Women, Great Place to Work analyzed the survey responses of over 640,000 women who work for Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies that employ at least fifty women. To qualify, companies must have at least twenty percent of non-executive managers who are women and at least one female executive.

Congratulations to the Best Workplaces for Women and their commitment to ensuring equity for women at every level of the organization. These companies showed up for women in new ways to help them cope with challenges they face wherever they are—both inside and outside of work. Women in these companies are seen, heard, and valued. — Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work.

CIENCE Achievements

CIENCE's achievement on the Best Workplaces for Women list is the latest industry recognition for its exceptional workplace culture. CIENCE recently received Fortune’s Great Workplaces in Technology and Great Workplaces for Millennials awards in 2022.  Comparably, a leading culture and compensation monitoring website, also named CIENCE one of the Best Companies for Women and Best CEOs for Women in 2021. 

Recognizing these achievements for women in the workplace helps us continue to attract and retain the extraordinary people who make CIENCE a great place to work. — Cindy Sanborn, U.S. Human Resources Director

Fortune Best Workplaces for Women Award

The Fortune Best Workplaces for Women is the only company culture award in America that selects winners based on how fairly women reveal they are treated in the workplace. Great Place to Work measures the differences in women’s survey responses with those of their peers and evaluates the impact of demographics and roles on the quality and consistency of women’s experiences. 

Using rigorous analytics and confidential employee feedback, statements are weighted according to their relevance in describing the most important aspects of an equitable workplace for women.

I’ve seen a commitment to the core value of respect in the CIENCE culture. The bias-free care with which people are treated, the fairness of workplace decisions, and team camaraderie are all hallmarks of why it’s great to be a CIENtist. — August Keating, Interim CEO of CIENCE

Methodology

The rankings for this award are derived from sixty employee experience questions within the Great Place to Work Trust Index™ survey. Great Place to Work determines its lists using its proprietary For All methodology to evaluate and certify thousands of organizations in America’s largest ongoing annual workforce study, based on over 1.1 million survey responses and data from companies representing more than seven million employees

To qualify for the list, companies must be a Great Place Work-Certified™ organization. Companies with ten to 999 people are considered for the small and medium category while companies with 1,000 employees or more are considered for the large category.

Empowering Employees at CIENCE

The Great Place to Work survey results demonstrate a highly positive work environment for women. In that survey, 97% of CIENCE employees said the company is a great place to work, exceeding the 57% average of other companies in the U.S. 

Another source of inspiration for women employees, CIENCE regularly hosts an Enterprise Sales Development Podcast that speaks with top women leaders in the business, showcasing these industry giants and the endless opportunities for women. 

Here’s what Gabrielle “GB” Blackwell, sales development leader at Airtable, said about the Women in Sales Club, an organization she co-founded that is focused on enabling, empowering, and promoting women within the sales profession:
