When thinking of an outstanding workplace, many people might focus on perks like fantastic benefits, lively parties, and stylish offices. However, the true magic happens when there's trust in leaders, pride in one's work, and genuine camaraderie among colleagues. ✨


An impressive 100% of our USA employees affirmed that Social Discovery Group is a fantastic place to work, in comparison to the 57% average at other U.S. companies. This milestone places us among the world's top companies, and we couldn't be prouder!

We're thrilled to earn the Great Place To Work US, because this prestigious award recognizes our commitment to creating an exceptional employee experience and a positive, inclusive work culture where everyone feels valued, empowered, and able to bring their whole selves to work.


Great Place to Work® certification recognizes top employers based on anonymous employee feedback about their workplace experience and trust. It's a global benchmark with over 10,000 companies applying yearly across 60 countries. 🌍 The certification comes from Great Place To Work®, a global expert in workplace culture with 30 years of research. It helps organizations quantify their culture and produce better business results by creating a high-trust work experience for all employees, regardless of their role, gender, or tenure.


🏆Understanding the Certification


The Great Place To Work® (GPTW) Institute, a global expert, has certified our company for creating a positive, inclusive workplace where all employees feel valued, empowered, and able to be themselves. To earn this prestigious certification, companies undergo a thorough assessment of their workplace culture, including anonymous employee surveys that contribute to the Trust Index score. Research shows that high-trust organizations excel in hiring, retention, productivity, innovation, and financial performance. 📈


According to GPTW's model, a great workplace has four key qualities:

  • Employees trust and have confidence in their leaders
  • Employees take pride in their work and feel a sense of purpose
  • Collaboration with colleagues is enjoyable and fosters camaraderie
  • A consistently positive atmosphere is experienced by all, regardless of role, gender, race, or tenure


🌟 Why This Certification Matters?

This certification is a badge of honor for job seekers who prioritize a positive work culture. It is awarded based on excellent reviews from employees, making it a symbol of trust and authenticity. According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find great leaders at certified workplaces.

Additionally, employees at these organizations are:

  • 93% more likely to start their day with enthusiasm
  • Twice as likely to receive fair pay, share in company profits, and have equal chances for advancement


🎯SDG Journey

We started in June with an independent review of our culture and workforce policies, followed by detailed employee surveys.

Key Aspects of the Certification Process:

  1. Employee Surveys: Conducted over a two-week period to gather insights into workplace culture.

  2. Culture Brief: A short questionnaire about the company’s history and demographics is completed.

  3. Trust Index Score: A score of 65% or higher is required for certification.

  4. Benefits: Certification enhances branding, attracts top talent, and improves employee engagement and retention.


💖A heartfelt thank you to each team member for your dedication and commitment to making SDG a Great Place To Work. Let's continue to build upon this success and create an even brighter future for our company and our employees!💛
