A big thank you to all of our employees – you made us Washington’s Best Workplace!
Walsh/WA is honored to win Puget Sound Business Journal’s Best Workplaces 2017 Gold Award, received by our General Manager Bill Reid and cheered by all!
Walsh is Number One for Large Business on Puget Sound Business Journal’s annual list of the 80 best places to work in Washington – this is a fantastic honor that comes directly from our people! Employee survey responses created the score that put us in the top spot, out of hundreds of applicants, as one of the region’s top employers.
We had a blast at Safeco Field celebrating our nomination, walking the Mariners bases and hanging out in the dugouts. Congratulations to all 79 great business finalists and category winners!
In the responses to survey questions, employees weighed in on what makes Walsh a great place to work. A strong focus on safety, a respectful culture that encourages “working together” to make great things happen, and positive, encouraging leadership were a few of the many reasons why employees call Walsh the “Best” place to work. One of the topmost values was the company’s commitment to the highest quality and integrity in the industry; working in a family atmosphere and working alongside great people were among the top motivating factors for coming to work each day.
The one word used most often to describe Walsh’s work environment – fun.
Thank you for making us the BEST of the Best. We love your dedication, your heart and all the ways you make us great.
Special thanks to Wendy Kato, Marwa Zahid, Elizabeth Clark Rinehart and Fik Mulugeta for capturing the day with great photos!
