Glassdoor Best Places to Work and Best in Biz Award Wins Spotlight Peer 1’s Focus on Delivering
the Most Human Experience on the Web
Vancouver, British Columbia – December 11, 2014 – Peer 1 Hosting, the global Web
infrastructure and cloud hosting provider, is finishing 2014 with accolades from two leading
awards programs, the Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Awards and the Best in Biz Awards.
The 2015 Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Awards recognized Peer 1 as one of the 50 best places to
work in the U.S., based on employees’ input about their work environment. The survey asks
employees to rate their satisfaction with the company overall, as well as key workplace factors
like career opportunities, compensation, benefits, work/life balance, senior management, culture
and corporate values. This is a meaningful award for Peer 1 as the company encourages
employees to bring their authentic selves to work.
The Best in Biz Awards program awarded Gold to Peer 1 in the PR Campaign of the Year category
for its educational campaign about the effects of the NSA-related scandal, which provided
information about data sovereignty and security. Winners were selected by a panel of judges
from highly regarded U.S. news outlets, including Bloomberg Businessweek, Fortune and USA
Today. Peer 1’s second Best in Biz award in a row, this win underlines the importance and efficacy
of Peer 1’s efforts to continuously bring value to its community of users regarding issues that
impact their business.
“At Peer 1, we strive to be the most human company on the Internet, and everything we do
supports that purpose,” said Sheila Bouman, executive vice president and managing director,
Peer 1. “Our work to educate the community about the effects of NSA-related scandal, and our
efforts to make Peer 1 a company that people are proud to work for, supports that value. I am
thrilled to close out 2014 with these accolades, and look forward to achieving more successes in
2015.”
