Pune, India – March 26, 2019 

Every year, more than 10,000 organizations from over 58 countries partner with Great Place to Work® Institute for assessment, benchmarking, and planning actions to strengthen their workplace culture.

iPlace, a leading global recruiting company, announced that the Great Place to Work® Institute has certified the company as a Great Place to Work® for the second year in a row. The certification identifies companies that are actively working towards building a high-trust and high-performance culture.
