RALEIGH, N.C., Aug. 31, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Bandwidth Inc.
(NASDAQ: BAND), a leading global enterprise communications
platform and cloud-native carrier, today announced it has been
named one of the Best Places to Work in the Triangle, N.C., region
for the second year in a row. Winners were determined based on
employee engagement survey results, which measured 30 culture and
satisfaction drivers that are critical to an organization's
success.
Bandwidth's unique culture has enabled team members to achieve
their mission during the challenges of the pandemic
The announcement follows Bandwidth being named "Best Tech
Company to Work for" at the NC Tech Awards last Nov.
"Our strong mission-first culture continues to carry us through
our 20-year history of growth through many different seasons," said
Rebecca Bottorff, Bandwidth's Chief
People Officer. "We are honored to receive this recognition--and
proud of our Bandmates for living our principles as we drive
forward in our mission to develop and deliver the power to
communicate."
Bandwidth's unique service-oriented culture is centered on
meaningful work, lifting each other up and investing in the bodies,
minds and spirits of Bandmates. Together, these elements form a
pledge to employees that Bandwidth calls the Whole Person Promise.
Programs include:
- A "mission first" culture focused on working for and loving the
success of others. This approach has contributed to customer
satisfaction levels consistently above 97 percent as Bandwidth
continues to hit new innovation milestones.
- Development opportunities to ensure meaningful work and help
team members actively learn and grow in their careers. For example,
fully 25 percent of Bandwidth team members have been promoted this
year alone.
- Quarterly challenges that inspire Bandmates to be more
innovative, healthier, think more deeply about important topics and
push themselves to go beyond the status quo.
- A vacation email embargo that lets team members truly unplug
and disconnect when they take time off, while enabling colleagues
to step up in their absence.
- 90-minute workout lunches to help Bandmates achieve their
wellness goals by playing sports together, going to the gym or just
taking a walk. The company provides free gym memberships, on-site
exercise facilities at many offices and team challenges that
include fitness components.
- "Mahalo Moments" that help Bandmates celebrate life's important
milestones by offering two extra days off, such as for a first
wedding anniversary, first home purchase, reunions with family and
friends, and more.
- A "Go! Do! Day!" to have time off to participate in the causes
closest to team members' hearts, which encourages individual
activism and community involvement.
- Unity groups that bring together team members with similar
interests and also provide a forum for Bandmates with differing
ideas or backgrounds to share their stories, educate fellow
Bandmates and develop empathy and understanding for each
other.
