Expereo, the global leader in managed Network as a Service (NaaS) solutions connecting people, places and things around the world, has announced that it has been officially certified as a Great Place To Work® UAE for the first time. The certification is based solely on feedback from employees regarding their experiences within the organisation. This year’s survey results revealed that 94% of employees consider Expereo a great place to work—three percentage points higher than the national benchmark. Great Place To Work® is recognised worldwide for its expertise in workplace culture, employee engagement and leadership excellence that drives performance, retention and innovation.
“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that reflects consistent and intentional commitment to the employee experience,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work®. “Certification is the only official recognition determined by real-time employee feedback. By earning this honor, Expereo has clearly distinguished itself as one of the best companies to work for, offering an outstanding workplace environment.”
Ben Elms, CEO of Expereo, added: “I am incredibly proud of our UAE team for this achievement. When we opened our Dubai office 14 years ago, our goal was to build an exceptional team and a workplace where people enjoy the colleagues they work with, embrace our culture, and deliver outstanding service every day. Congratulations to the management team for fostering pride, trust, and genuine camaraderie across the organization.”
