Unitas Global heralded among ‘Best Places to Work’ in Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES, USA: Unitas Global, the leading IaaS provider of Enterprise Private Cloud, data center management and monitoring and IT outsourcing solutions, has been recognized as one of the best places to work in the Los Angeles area by the Los Angeles Business Journal (LABJ), a weekly newspaper which provides award-winning, comprehensive coverage of local business news, and the Best Employers Group.

As one of the 400,000 submissions in the Los Angeles area, Unitas Global successfully secured its position amongst a prestigious list of the region's top ‘Medium-Sized Companies,' ranking in at number 6. Unitas and the other top 100 winners were honored at The Best Places to Work awards luncheon, which took place on Wednesday, August 21, 2013 at the JW Marriott Los Angeles L.A. LIVE.

The Best Places to Work Awards is a professional program conducted by Best Employers Group and the LABJ that recognizes local employers' achievements in creating an ideal and motivational work environment that fosters both personal development as well as professional growth. Participants were judged based on detailed evaluations completed by their employees.

Unitas was selected due to its exceptional performance in the awards' 10 core focus areas including: leadership and planning, organizational culture and communications, role satisfaction, work environment, training and development, pay and benefits, and overall engagement, as well as corporate policies, practices and demographics.

"Unitas Global is honored to be named one of the top L.A.-based mid-sized companies to work for by the Los Angeles Business Journal and Best Employers Group," says Grant Kirkwood, CEO of Unitas Global. "In addition to our industry-leading solutions, Unitas takes the most pride in our staff members. Having built a diverse, global and world-class team of technology professionals focused on furthering our vision of making IT infrastructure management simple for our customers, Unitas strives to maintain its unique corporate culture as well as a professional atmosphere of creative and communicative freedom, engagement and collaboration."

Unitas Global differentiates itself from many of its mid-sized counterparts by promoting a fun, creative and productive work environment through several specific nuances, including an employee wellness program featuring organized group activities, competitive benefits package, stock and ownership options, educational and career development opportunities, green-incentivized commuting compensation, and much, much more. Weekly happy hours and Taco Tuesdays tend to be the biggest crowd pleasers.
