Globant (NYSE: GLOB), a digitally native company focused on reinventing businesses through innovative technology solutions, was ranked on the list for its agile and supportive company culture that encourages all Globant employees (also known as “Globers”) to continuously reinvent themselves, their ideas, and their work for clients. 

“It's an honor to be included on this list, and this recognition has inspired us to continue strengthening our employee-centric approach and become the place where top innovative technologists can create the best version of themselves,” said Wanda Weigert, Chief Brand Officer at Globant. “Our company-wide values help us ensure that everybody has the possibility to strive for growth, and that the best ideas – no matter where they originate – will be heard, acknowledged, and put into action.” 

Globant’s flexible and diverse working environment is designed to support the innovation needed to outpace the increasing rate of business and technical change. Over the last year, Globant made several strategic investments designed to bolster the strength of its workforce in North America and across the globe, including:

  • Bolstering the Globant X product portfolio, including the launch of AI-powered test automation solution MagnifAI and commercialization of Globant’s employee engagement platform StarMeUp
  • Creating new “Studios,” or dedicated hubs of expertise, for emerging technologies (e.g., Metaverse, Digital Sales, Digital Lending) and for re-inventing  industries (e.g., Travel & Hospitality, Life Sciences, Airlines)
  • Acquiring a number of highly innovative technology companies, such as leading low-code platform GeneXus
  • Enhancing employee benefits related to health, wellness, education, and training
  • Increasing its number of employees by almost 30% (as of Q1 2021 in North America)
