Entara, a security-first eXtended Service Provider (XSP), announced that it has been named one of Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work for.
To be recognized, companies must differentiate themselves by demonstrating a commitment to excellence in their human resources practices and employee enrichment. Organizations are evaluated based on categories such as communication, work-life balance, employee education, diversity, recognition, retention, and more by an independent research firm. The evaluation includes an employer questionnaire and an employee engagement survey. Each year expectations for the awards are set higher, consequently encouraging companies to improve their practices and make the Chicago region a better place to live and work.
“We are thrilled to be acknowledged once more as one of Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For,” said Pamela Diaz, CEO and President of Entara. “Entara remains dedicated to our core values of Empathy, Evolution, Execution, and Excellence, which have fostered a vibrant company culture. Our people are what makes Entara a great workplace and we look forward to continuing to secure the future of our employees by providing a great work environment.”
