“When our people feel free to bring their authentic selves to work every day, there is no limit to how great our company can be,” said Ross Wainwright, CEO of Alida. “We believe that our culture is enriched when we embrace each other’s differences. There is so much strength that can be drawn from a workplace that values equality, inclusivity and respect for one another. Despite this terrific recognition, I remain focused on looking at ways we can continue to improve. This is very much a process versus an event. There is so much more we can learn from our employees.”
Company winners were chosen based on the anonymous feedback they received from employees that identified as being from diverse backgrounds. Alida employees ranked the company exceptionally well for experience, pay equity, support from leadership, and overall culture.
