Read on to learn more about Certification Nation Day, WP Engine’s history with Great Place to Work, and how our core values drive greatness every day!
What is Great Place to Work Certification Nation Day?
Great Place to Work (GPTW) is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and leadership behaviors. Through in-depth employee feedback surveys, GPTW recognizes companies that foster environments where people feel respected, empowered, and engaged.
Earning this certification isn’t just about perks or benefits—it’s about creating a workplace where trust, collaboration, and inclusivity thrive.
Certification Nation Day, celebrated every October, highlights organizations that have achieved Great Place to Work certification based on employee feedback collected in the Trust Index survey.
The feedback, which GPTW collects, anonymizes, and returns to participating organizations, provides an opportunity for companies to reflect on their achievements, celebrate their teams, and continue the work of maintaining a positive, inclusive environment.
WP Engine’s Great Place to Work journey
WP Engine has a longstanding history with GPTW. Since earning our first certification in 2017, we’ve been recognized on several prestigious lists, including Best Workplaces in Technology, Best Workplaces for Women, and Best Workplaces for Millennials.
Each of our international locations has received GPTW certification at various points, including multiple certifications in Ireland and the UK as well as our most recent certifications in Poland and Australia. These achievements reflect the strong culture we’ve built globally, where innovation and teamwork coincide to create a thriving workplace.
Our GPTW journey is a testament to our efforts throughout the years to invest in our people and ensure that they feel supported, valued, and engaged, even across multiple countries and time zones.
