Periscope Data Recognized as Industry Leader for Culture, Diversity

SAN FRANCISCO, December 12, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Periscope Data, the world’s leading analytics platform for data professionals, has been ranked by Comparably.com as one of the top companies in the U.S. in several categories in its latest rankings released this week. As a reflection of its continued focus on creating a kind, positive and inclusive culture, Periscope Data was recognized as one of the nation’s top companies for women, diversity and overall company culture, while co-founder and CEO Harry Glaser was named as one of the nation’s Best CEOs.

Comparably’s ratings for best CEOs and overall company culture reflect employee perspectives on the company’s culture across several categories, while diversity and women rankings came from approval ratings of employees only in those groups. The final data sets were compiled from nearly 10 million ratings across 50,000 U.S. companies. Earlier in 2018, Periscope Data placed on Comparably’s lists among the nation’s top companies for compensation, leadership, perks and benefits, professional development and happiest employees.

"The greatest contribution I can make as a CEO is to hire incredible people, create an environment where they feel valued and empower them to work together as a cohesive unit. These awards are a validation of values we've instilled since the early stages of the company and a reflection of the talented and caring employees that make up our team."

They serve as great examples of organizations that promote a culture of racial diversity and parity of women in the workforce.”
