CLEVELAND–June 21, 2017–Everstream, a superregional fiber network service provider, has been recognized by The Plain Dealer as a Top Workplace in Cleveland for 2017. This is the company’s second consecutive year making the list.
“Everstream is committed to fostering an environment where employees understand their contributions are valued and are acknowledged for their efforts,” said Brett Lindsey, president and chief executive officer, Everstream. “Making certain that our employees are happy and have a positive workplace where they can succeed are key factors.”
The Plain Dealer named 150 companies and organizations in a variety of industries—ranging from technology and marketing firms to financial services and healthcare—for this annual listing, which is based solely on employee surveys about their respective workplaces.
“I feel like I have a voice,” said one Everstream team member. “I contribute every day and I feel appreciated by every level of the organization.”
WorkplaceDynamics, a leading research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement and runs the Top Workplaces initiative, has ranked the top workplaces in Northeast Ohio for the past eight years. The program is based on the simple belief that the most successful companies are the ones that employees believe in.
