TORONTO, APRIL 13, 2023 – Prime Quadrant, a leading trusted advisor serving over 200 affluent families across North America, is pleased to announce that it has been recognized as one of the Best Workplaces™ in Canada by Great Place to Work®. The prestigious award was announced on April 14th, 2023, following an independent and anonymous Trust Index™ Survey conducted among all Prime Quadrant team members.
The competition process to be ranked on this list is employee-driven and represents multiple industries and sizes of organizations. 75% of each organization’s score is based on confidential employee feedback, from the globally recognized Trust Index® Survey. The remaining 25% is based on quality, quantity and effectiveness of the programs and policies which support their employees and corporate culture. This study offers a rigorous representation of the organization from an employee perspective, and an overall portrait of the workplace culture. Together, they provide crucial data relative to five trust-building dimensions: credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie.
Prime Quadrant’s team feedback certified them as a Great Place to Work® back in both 2021 and 2022, and then further enabled them to earn the honor of being named one of the Best Workplaces™ in Canada the following year, solidifying its position as one of the top workplaces in the country.
“This recognition means that our team members feel fulfilled and excited to come to work and we have created an environment where they can achieve their own goals and objectives” said Mo Lidsky, CEO. “At the end of the day, it really is all about the people and if our people feel great, then our prospects of success for the future are even greater.”
Prime Quadrant attributes its success as a top workplace to its collaborative environment and servant leader mentality. The focus is on people’s personal and professional growth and continuous learning. The team is provided semi-annual coaching check-ins with their supervisor, uncoupled from compensation and performance. Their performance is assessed separately and also semi-annually. The supervisors are enabled by 360 reviews after which they are provided with third-party coaching with a focus on areas for improvement.
