Arthrex Named on the 2015 Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® List

NAPLES, FL – March 5, 2015 – Arthrex has been named one of the 2015 FORTUNE "100 Best Companies to Work For®" in the country. This list, now in its 18th year, recognizes companies that have exceptional workplace cultures. Arthrex was selected among hundreds of companies from throughout the U.S. vying for a place on the list this year.  

“We are proud and honored to be included on FORTUNE’s ‘100 Best Companies to Work For’ list and believe it’s a testament to our extraordinary work environment and commitment to Making People Better,” said Arthrex Founder and President Reinhold Schmieding. “By investing in our employees’ well-being and professional development, we are investing in Arthrex’s long-term success.”  

Creators of the methodology behind the list, Great Place to Work® have found that employees believe they work for great organizations when they consistently trust the people they work for, have pride in what they do and enjoy the people they work with.  

The selection process takes into account an employee survey and an in-depth questionnaire about the applicant company’s programs and practices. Great Place to Work® then evaluates each application using its unique methodology based on five dimensions: credibility, respect, fairness, pride and camaraderie.  

“A new type of 21st century company is emerging,” said China Gorman, CEO of Great Place to Work®. “It is transforming how business is done both internally and externally. It understands that a high-trust work culture results in higher productivity, increased engagement and better financial performance. These factors ultimately lead to a competitive advantage. The 100 Best Companies set the standard for businesses.”
