NEO Certified Once Again as A Great Place to Work®

Certification based on independent analysis and anonymous employee surveys

Toronto | October 27, 2021 – The results are in! NEO has been certified once again as a Great Workplace following a thorough and independent analysis by the Great Place to Work® Institute. The certification is based on feedback about the workplace experience directly from employees through a confidential survey and an extensive application process including an in-depth review of the company’s HR programs, policies, and practices.

“This is a particularly meaningful award as it’s based on the direct feedback of our team – the people who contribute every day to making NEO an incredible organization and who have first-hand knowledge of what it’s really like to work here,” says Jos Schmitt, President and CEO of NEO. “We have experienced tremendous growth in our breadth of talent and depth of service offerings over the past few years. This certification tells us that we have created a special workplace with a team that is well-equipped and motivated to bring our vision to fruition. This does not mean that going forward we will rest on our laurels. On the contrary, there is always room for improvement.”

With a focus on continued innovation and ambitious plans for the future, NEO recognizes that a strong and engaged workforce is critical to success. “We are fortunate to have a powerhouse team of diverse and talented individuals in place at NEO,” remarked Claudia Rinaldo, Head of Human Resources, “and we’re committed to working together to always do better. By seeking feedback and suggestions from our team, we can continue to challenge the status quo and implement change where it’s needed, in order to create an optimal work environment.”

So, What Makes NEO a Great Place to Work®?

The anonymous survey results indicate that the NEO team values the company’s dynamic culture, stimulating work assignments, ongoing mentorship and support, flexible work arrangements, and the quality of the executive leadership and managerial team, among other factors.

“In the past year alone, we have formed a dynamic team-led Diversity & Inclusion Committee, developed a voluntary career mentorship program, boosted the benefits coverage for mental health services during the pandemic, and so much more,” added Jos. “We will continue to anticipate the needs of our team as NEO grows and evolves. After all, a happy, engaged, and loyal workforce will go above and beyond to deliver outstanding client service, so an investment in our team is also an investment in our clients.”
