Ripple Scores Well Above Industry Benchmarks
Great Place to Work scores 95% of Ripple employees as working in a great place versus 57% of employees at the typical U.S. company.
There were a number of workplace categories that raked in very high scores. Staff gave positive feedback about having been given a friendly induction, facilities that were supportive to them, having access to the resources they require to do their work and a shared working environment where staff were treated equally, irrespective of their roles.
Workplace culture was also very positive as employees indicated that achievements and special occasions are celebrated and recognised throughout the organisation on a regular basis.

Employee Experience Drives the Ranking
The annual workplace ranking report from Fortune is derived from the majority of the information collected through the Great Place to Work evaluation process, done on a confidential basis with employees.
The methodology is built on trust, fairness, respect, credibility, camaraderie and employee pride. The ranking is not based on corporate submissions, but is a result of staff subjective experience within the company on a day-to-day basis.
High employee morale has been a coming and going topic at Ripple for the past few years as it continues to recruit in each of these areas.
Recognition Comes During Ripple’s Product Expansion
The product gets added to Ripple’s growing roster of crypto-related products in the workplace.
Ripple Payments is a platform that seeks to offer a blockchain-based solution to the traditional method of cross-border payments, shortening payments times and enhancing the efficiency of payment processes. Ripple Custody enables institutions to securely store and manage digital assets.
Meanwhile, Ripple has ramped up its XRP and RLUSD (the crypto dollar) integration throughout its extensive suite of services. These assets are part of the company’s efforts to modernize its financial infrastructure and drive new uses of its digital assets.

Building Through Crypto Market Cycles
Ripple has been following on growth rather than trying to eliminate costs during times of market volatility as most other companies. The corporate culture of a company or organization can be considered to be one of the most significant signs of company sustainability.
A workplace culture for a company or organization can be an essential factor for the long term sustainability of the company, especially in the competitive setting of the digital asset industry.
