WP Engine creates the best hosting environment for our customers, and while we’re proud of the excellent service and premium WordPress products we provide, we also work hard to create a work environment that allows our employees to thrive.

WP Engine UK, which includes our London team as well as our remote workforce across the country, was recently recognized for creating and maintaining a positive workplace with certification by Great Place to Work®, the global authority on workplace culture, in the medium-sized workplace category.

This marks the seventh time our UK team has been recognized by Great Place to Work and WP Engine’s 26th certification organization-wide, and it comes on the heels of another Great Place to Work certification for WP Engine Ireland!

Some might say that British culture is a bit like a good cup of tea: It’s all about the blend. And just like a good cuppa tea, a positive work culture can really hit the spot. When you work somewhere that makes you feel valued, respected and supported, it can make all the difference. So, cheers to WP Engine UK achieving recognition as a Great Place to Work—we will keep brewing that positive culture!

To be certified as a Great Place to Work, employers must complete a two-step process, beginning with The Trust Index™ survey, which provides a place for employees to summarize the quality of their experiences as workers within an organization. 

Then, designated representatives from the organization fill out a Culture Brief, a short questionnaire about the quality of their company culture.

In order to gain certification, organizations must attain an average score of at least 65% on the Trust Index survey and submit satisfactory answers on the Culture Brief.

“As the global authority on workplace culture, our mission at Great Place to Work has always been to build a better world by helping organizations become a great place to work for all. We strongly believe in the notion of ‘better for business, better for people, better for the world,” said Great Place to Work UK Managing Director Benedict Gautrey. 

Congratulations to our colleagues in the UK on their seventh win; we thank you for all the hard work you’ve put in to make WP Engine UK such a Great Place to Work.
