Ultimate Software (Nasdaq: ULTI), a leading provider of human capital management (HCM) solutions in the cloud, announced today that the company is ranked as one of AnitaB.org‘s 2018 Top Companies for Women Technologists, a national program that recognizes companies building workplaces where women can thrive. Ultimate earned one of the five highest overall scores in the workforce-size category of 1,000-10,000 technical employees.
“Our participation in this program is a testament to our deep commitment to putting all people first, and keeping Ultimate focused on diversity, inclusion, and universal respect,” said Vivian Maza, chief people officer at Ultimate. “We are extremely proud to be recognized as an example of a technology company that understands the vital role of women. Women comprise about half of Ultimate’s total employees, and nearly 50% of our frontline manager positions. We remain committed to the success of everyone at Ultimate and strongly value the contributions of our female employees at all levels of our organization.”
AnitaB.org‘s program analyzes data on representation, employee experience, programs, and policies so that companies can continue to build more inclusive workplaces. The report for Ultimate highlighted company policies that support female employees, including:
• Paid maternity and adoption leave (10 weeks)
• A formal flex-time policy that includes remote work, flexible hours, and accommodating schedules
• A gender-diversity accountability policy to eliminate gender bias in performance reviews
• A pay-equity policy requiring pay equity by gender and the completion of annual audits to monitor policy execution
• A leadership-development program for women at all levels, from entry level to executive. Ultimate’s companywide Women in Leadership group offers Ultimate’s women an outlet to learn, connect, and succeed through a variety of networking, social, and community service events engineered to inspire women everywhere
• A formal, continuing-education sponsorship program that plays an important role in accelerating the advancement of women technologists, offered to women at all levels of the organization
Eighty companies participated in AnitaB.org‘s 2018 program, representing over 628,000 technical employees across multiple industries. More than 150,800 women were included in the sample. Each company that participated in the survey received a score based on seven metrics: representation of women at the entry, mid, senior, and executive levels, and recruitment, retention, and advancement rates.
