Great Place To Work® doesn't mess around when it comes to finding the cream of the crop in workplace awesomeness. They dig deep into employee survey feedback, examining everything from trust levels, to whether the team feels like they're reaching their full-on human potential. It's like a workplace Olympics, but instead of gold medals, it's all about that Best Workplaces™ status!

After crunching the data insights, Great Place To Work® whips out its trusty benchmarking tools to size up how well companies' promises match up with the real deal employees are living every day. Their goal is to make sure that what companies preach about their workplace environment matches the reality of their employee's experience.

So, who makes the cut? Only the absolute top dogs who score off the charts in making their employees feel like they've hit the jackpot in workplace satisfaction.

One employee referenced the breadth of benefits in their feedback:

“Razor is always thinking of something new that would benefit its employees. Razor Bank Holidays is one example of this, days in the winter that we have off as a company that allow us all more time to fully switch off and recharge. Razor is always putting people first and leading in innovative ideas to improve people's lives.”

Another colleague talked about the team: 

“There are so many things that make Razor a great place to work, the team is mind blowing-ly intelligent, kind and caring, it's a pleasure to be a part of it.”

Others spoke about our leaders: 

“The management team has genuine care for the people, not as employees, but as individuals with home lives, families and friends. Their leadership is inspirational, on top of the fact that they make it such a safe, fun and caring environment to work in.”

Some spoke about the way we work: 

“What is said at Razor, really happens. It's not lip service. The bar is high, the challenges are significant, and there is the support and care to help to achieve such heights.”

“There is a huge focus on making sure people are happy in what they do which means we are a well-motivated bunch.”

“You will never miss a chance to see weird things going on from the interesting tech we work on, to the randomly weird conversations we have. As it has always been said, we need to 'Keep Razor Weird'!”

“We’re all about using tech to enhance, transform and progress organisations – we’re all about making and delivering transformational tech for humans, by humans. Without our people, that would be impossible; they make Razor the thriving, pioneering and radical company it is, which is why we put them first. It’s awesome and heartwarming to see that the work we put in to nurture this positive, energetic culture is felt by most and acknowledged in our position in the UK’s Best Workplaces™ 2024 List by Great Place To Work.

And we even got a quote from Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director of Great Place To Work® UK: “At Great Place To Work® our overarching goal has consistently been to enrich the world of work by empowering companies to evolve into exceptional organisations that cater to everyone. We wholeheartedly endorse the idea that what's 'better for business' aligns with what's 'better for people,' ultimately contributing to a better world for all." 

“Year after year, it's truly inspiring to witness a growing number of organisations earn a spot on our UK’s Best Workplaces™ List, we’ve seen our client’s Trust Index scores increasing, meaning the bar for being on this list is getting higher. This recognition is no mean feat and highlights companies across the UK that excel in fostering high levels of trust in leadership, instilling pride in their workforce, and cultivating strong camaraderie among colleagues. These crucial elements collectively contribute to creating workplaces where employees feel they can truly be themselves and thrive in a supportive environment. Congratulations to Razor for being part of our 2024 UK’s Best Workplaces™ List."
