AMBITION
“The criteria for The Sunday Times Best Companies list is rigorous and, most significantly, it provides feedback on what people currently working at the company think. That’s vital to us when we’re looking not just to keep and develop our team but also hire great new people who match our values and ambition.”
Jonathan Austin, CEO & founder of Best Companies, added: “I would like to congratulate tails.com on their achievement. Best Companies have been producing the accreditation standard since 2006 to acknowledge excellence in the workplace.
“Organisations like tails.com have continued to focus on their employees and have been rewarded with an engaged workforce who tell us that this is a best company to work for.”
The Best 100 small companies 2020 list, compiled by The Sunday Times, lists organisations with at least 50 full-time employees that have achieved the highest Best Companies Index scores.
