WP Engine Ireland has once again been recognized as one of the country’s Best Workplaces by Great Place to Work, the global authority on workplace culture.

This marks WP Engine Ireland’s seventh consecutive year as a certified company, further solidifying our reputation for fostering a positive and supportive work environment.

“Since opening our Limerick office in 2016, our goal has been twofold: growth and success for our customers, and retention and happiness for our own employees,” said WP Engine VP of Product and Limerick Site Leader Haidee McMahon.

“While it’s easy to see customer growth, it can be more difficult to quantify a successful workplace culture. This latest recognition reflects our success as we continuously build a culture in which our team members truly feel valued.”

Read on to learn more about Great Place to Work, the selection process for certified companies, and the numerous accolades WP Engine has received over the years.

How WP Engine Ireland earned great workplace recognition

WP Engine Ireland was officially certified following an independent analysis conducted by Great Place to Work Ireland.

To achieve certification, companies must survey their employees and submit the anonymous results to Great Place to Work for analysis. The organization benchmarks the results of the Trust Index Survey™ against industry peers, identifying the top performers based on trust, workplace fairness, and overall employee experience.

After earning general certification, companies can receive additional certifications for excellence in employee experience for specific industries, demographics, or regions.

Being Great Place to Work-certified places WP Engine Ireland among a distinguished group of companies that prioritize exceptional workplace culture. This year, WP Engine ranked 16 out of 40 certified companies in the medium-sized business category, reflecting our continuous efforts to enhance employee experiences.

What is Great Place to Work?

Great Place to Work began with a book published in 1984, titled The 100 Best Companies to Work for in America. In the more than 40 years since the organization has surveyed thousands of employers worldwide to become the most trusted authority on workplace culture. The company now identifies businesses that cultivate strong, people-first workplaces across more than 170 countries and regions.

According to the Great Place to Work Trust Model, Great Workplaces are those where employees:

  1. Trust the people they work for.
  2. Feel respected by their leaders and managers.
  3. Experience a fair, positive, and inclusive workplace, regardless of their role or background.
  4. Take genuine pride in their work.
  5. Enjoy collaborating with their colleagues.

WP Engine Ireland is honored to once again be recognized for the team’s continued dedication to creating an inclusive and rewarding work environment.
