The Scalers is officially a Great Place to Work

At The Scalers, our employees are the cornerstone of our success. We are committed to creating a positive and inclusive work environment that empowers our team to do their best work and reach their full potential.

This year we wanted to ensure that we were living up to our values, so we put ourselves under the independent evaluation of the Great Place to Work certification. We’re happy to report that they found The Scalers reached their criteria, and their evaluation has provided further inspiration for how we can continue to improve.

Congratulations to every employee. It’s thanks to the culture you all create that has meant we can achieve this recognition.

What is the Great Place to Work certificate?

The Great Place to Work certification is a prestigious award recognising organisations that have created a positive and inclusive work culture. The certificate is based on a comprehensive evaluation process that includes anonymous employee surveys, as well as a review of the company’s policies, practices, and benefits.

I have worked in multiple organisations — small and big — throughout my career. But I've never had better colleagues or managers than here. They don’t just talk about being people-centred; they live it.

What qualifies a company as a Great Place to Work?

To be certified as a Great Place to Work, organisations must meet specific criteria, including high levels of trust and camaraderie among employees, and strong levels of pride in the organisation. Companies that receive this certification are considered leaders in creating positive and supportive work environments.

What makes The Scalers unique?

Right from the inception of The Scalers, we have sought to put people first and create a work culture where everyone can flourish while having fun. We wanted to change the perception of offshore as a low-quality environment and instead create teams that set the standard for what makes a great place to work.

We are treated equally no matter the role, our gender or any other factor. It really makes The Scalers a safe place to work and we are given opportunities to grow as well.

To achieve this dream, we made people-centricity one of our core values and backed it up with a series of cultural initiatives and perks. While some items seem small, they create an environment where people want to work and can do their best work regardless of their life circumstances.
