‘Fostering a vibrant company culture that authentically reflects our values is the key to our success, and a competitive advantage when it comes to retaining our great talent. A key part of our culture is autonomy, giving people the time, space and freedom to do their job as they see fit, and offer suggestions for improvements or enhancements along the way’, said J.C. Herrera, chief human resources officer at CrowdStrike. ‘We also strive to create an environment that values and includes all backgrounds and points of view, and we cultivate the diversity of perspective it takes to continuously innovate. This award from Fortune reflects all of the hard work CrowdStrikers have done to make this such a celebrated and forward-looking company.’
In recognising CrowdStrike, Fortune Magazine cited the company’s efforts to support employees in many different ways amidst the pandemic. Wellness tools were provided to support employees with topics ranging from maintaining physical and mental health, volunteering virtually, financial resources and employee assistance programs. Fortune also highlighted CrowdStrike’s flexible time off policy and that recharge company-wide ‘time off’ days were distributed numerous times over the course of 2020.
