NEW YORK – July 11, 2023 - Fast Company today announced its fifth annual Best Workplaces for Innovators list, honoring organizations and businesses that demonstrate an inspiring commitment to encourage and develop innovation at all levels. Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company focused on reinventing businesses through innovative technology solutions, was named a finalist on the Best Workplaces for Innovations International list for its cultivation of a diverse, inclusive, and growth-centric employee experience.
“For the last twenty years, we have continuously reinvented our company culture to provide our Globers around the world with the opportunities, benefits, and tools they need to keep up with technology’s rapid pace of change and continue growing both personally and professionally,” said Patricia Pomies, Chief Operating Officer at Globant. “We are honored to receive this recognition from Fast Company, as our proven ability to let innovation thrive is what sets us apart as an international employer, partner, and service provider.”
Globant’s working environment is purpose-built to support the innovation and growth of its employees (also known as “Globers”) and customers around the world. Over the last year, Globant made several strategic investments designed to support and strengthen its workforce in North America and internationally, including:
- Bolstering the Globant X product portfolio, including the launch of GeneXus Next, the AI assistant that uses Large Language Model and low-code technology to create and maintain enterprise software solutions in record time; Augoor, the first AI-powered navigation tool for code; WaaSabi, the API platform that allows companies to develop their own digital wallet; and StarMeUp, a behavioral-science-based, AI-enhanced platform that helps companies optimize their culture and create a sense of meaning and belonging at work
- Creating new “Studios,” or dedicated hubs of expertise, for emerging technologies (e.g., Fast Code, Blockchain, Metaverse), reinventing industries (e.g., Globant Create, Sports, Retail, Automotive, EdTech, Smart Payments), and enterprise technology platforms (e.g., Google Cloud, SAP, Oracle)
- Enhancing employee benefits related to health, wellness, education, and training, including launcing “Open Career,” its agile career marketplace where every Globant employee can view and apply to new opportunities within the company at any time
- Launching its “Council of Igniters,” the first-ever corporate advisory board made up entirely of members of Generation Z, to provide Globant with a fresh and innovative perspective and attract the next generation of talent
- Hosting the third annual edition of its global “Women that Build Awards,” which recognizes influential and inspiring women and non-binary people in IT, both internally and externally
Globant has won several awards for its culture in 2023 alone, including being named a finalist for “Best Employer” in the Women in IT Awards USA for the second consecutive year and winning nine Comparably awards, including “Best Career Growth,” “Best Leadership Teams,” “Best CEOs for Diversity,” “Best CEOs for Women,” “Best Engineering Team,” “Best Product & Design Team,” “Best Marketing Team,” “Best Global Culture,” and “Best Company Outlook.”
