Johnston, IA — Growers Edge is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the third year in a row. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at Growers Edge. This year, 85 percent of employees said it’s a great place To Work — 28 points higher than the average U.S. company.

Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work.

She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Growers Edge stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”

We are thrilled to become Great Place To Work-Certified™. Employee experience is one of our top priorities,” said Chief People Officer Mary Johnson. “We owe our continued success to our team of dedicated employees at Growers Edge. We celebrate and thank them for all they do to earn this incredible recognition.”

At Growers Edge, we’re committed to supporting our people, communities, and the environment with a strong focus on well-being, flexibility, and sustainability.

Over the past year, we’ve introduced several impactful initiatives:

  • Wellness Days: Encouraging a minimum of 16 hours annually for rest, mental health, or personal fulfillment.
  • Flexible Time Off (FTO): Employees take time off as needed, reflecting our trust and commitment to work-life balance.
  • Expanded Holidays & Remote Flexibility: More paid holidays and continued hybrid / remote options to support individual lifestyles.

As an agtech company, we also embrace our role in promoting sustainable agriculture. We do this both through our products, which help farmers optimize resources, and through our own efforts to reduce our environmental footprint.

These steps reflect our ongoing promise to prioritize people, purpose, and planet alongside performance.

According to Great Place To Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93 percent more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits, and have a fair chance at promotion.
