“It is always such a thrill to continue to place on lists for best workplaces in the U.S.,” said Stu Sjouwerman, CEO, KnowBe4. “We make a very concerted effort in everything that we do to be the best place employees have ever worked. Transparency, open communication and a fun atmosphere all help contribute to KnowBe4’s success and have helped to earn us a spot in the top four on this list for the fourth consecutive year.”  

The Best Workplaces in Technology list is highly competitive. Great Place to Work, the global authority on workplace culture, selected the list using rigorous analytics and confidential employee feedback. Companies were only considered if they are a Great Place to Work-Certified™ organization.

Great Place to Work is the only company culture award in America that selects winners based on how fairly employees are treated. Companies are assessed on how well they are creating a great employee experience that cuts across race, gender, age, disability status, or any aspect of who employees are or what their role is.

“It’s more than fancy perks at the Best Workplaces in Technology. Employees at the companies praised their leaders for their incredible transparency and care during this pandemic year,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, VP global recognition, Great Place to Work®. “Even while working from home, employees said they felt more connected to their colleagues and their communities than ever.”

In 2020, KnowBe4 also ranked as a Best Workplace for Millennials and Women.
