Peyton Caffey, ANZ HR Director, ServiceNow Australia and New Zealand said: “As a rapidly growing company always on the hunt for top talent, we focus on both attracting and retaining high-performers. One of the ways we do this is through the ServiceNow People Pact, which is our promise to employees. It commits we will support each other to deliver our best work, live fulfilling lives, and pursue our collective purpose. We achieve this by fostering a sense of community, by prioritising training, growth and career development, celebrating individuality, and offering benefits that really matter to our people; like generous family leave, health & wellbeing programs, flexible and remote working options.
“Day-to-day, we also do everything we can to make work better for our people. ServiceNow technology is designed to empower teams to work simply and easily. We see ourselves as ‘customer zero’ and we use all our own tools and technology to help employees work efficiently, wherever they are. This streamlines and automates how we work, giving time for our people to focus on what matters most to their careers and wellbeing.”
Pritho Saxena, director of HR – Australia at Amazon, said: “People are at the heart of everything Amazon does, and we are proud that LinkedIn has recognised Amazon Australia’s commitment to providing the resources and opportunities for people to thrive. This incredible recognition is testament to Amazon’s ongoing efforts to create a supportive, inclusive, and dynamic workplace. We are proud that this ranking reflects that commitment and the incredible contributions of our employees every day”.
