Arizona Capitol Times, Best Companies Group and BestCompaniesAZ announced today that for the fifth consecutive year Spear Education has earned a spot on the 11th annual list of 2023 Top Companies to Work for in Arizona.
This highly selective list is the result of anonymous and comprehensive employee surveys measuring culture, work environment, leadership, and employee pride and satisfaction, combined with rigorous evaluations of workplace practices, policies, perks, and demographics.
“This year’s Top Companies were selected based on the results of very high favorable employee survey scores averaging 90% overall survey results and an impressive 92% overall employee engagement. This level of performance for Arizona companies is about three times the national average when compared to Gallup’s recent reporting of US engagement at about one-third favorable,” says Jaime Zepeda, EVP Best Companies Group. “These winners should be very proud of their Top Companies status for this presents a powerful opportunity to attract and retain the very best talent.”
“We are honored to be included on this list of leading workplaces in Arizona for the fifth consecutive year. Spear is a special company built on a culture of collaboration, idea sharing, and individualism,” said Matthew Coggin, President of Spear Education. “I am incredibly proud of all of our employees and their dedication to our mission of helping dentists and their teams pursue and achieve Great Dentistry.”
The “Top Companies" will be honored at a virtual event on Aug. 22, 2023, and a special supplement listing the rankings will be published by Arizona Capitol Times and BestCompaniesAZ on Aug. 25.
