SoftPro Named Best Place to Work by Triangle Business Journal
July 22, 2021
SoftPro was named one of Triangle Business Journal’s 2021 Best Places to Work.
“It is such an honor for SoftPro to be named in the 2021 Best Places to Work in the Triangle,” said Joyce Weiland, SoftPro president. “The Research Triangle Park is home to so many amazing companies, and to be named among this distinct group based on employee feedback affirms the positive environment we endeavor to create and nurture.”
Only 50 businesses earned this distinction with hundreds submitting nominations. The 2021 Best Places to Work winners were chosen based on employee participation and their responses in a survey process conducted by Quantum Workplace. SoftPro has been named to the journal’s Best Places to Work eight previous times.
When SoftPro’s entire workforce began working remotely in March 2020, the HR and IT departments worked together to ensure that employees had everything they needed to create a comfortable and efficient work-from-home environment. All employees received an office supply voucher to upgrade their home office space with options such as extra monitors, standing desks and office chairs as they saw fit. HR also unveiled the Snappy program, an employee appreciation gift service that allows managers to send rewards to their employees.
SoftPro also got creative in continuing its philanthropy efforts throughout the pandemic by adapting their employee wellness program into team initiatives that earned money for employee-designated charities. Efforts such as these helped sustain the sense of community and connection among SoftPro employees. SoftPro began the process of welcoming employees back to the Raleigh headquarters in June 2021 with a rotational schedule that allows for collaboration and appropriate spacing. Employees can once again enjoy the recently renovated office space that includes a game room, a snack and beverage market, coffee and sparkling water machines, and the hands-down favorite pellet ice machines. SoftPro is also known for competitive pay and benefits including an employee stock purchase plan, 401k matching, fitness center reimbursement and summer “Flex Fridays.”
