Beyond rankings or awards, these surveys provide candid feedback on where we're excelling and how we can improve to ensure employees feel cared for and heard. Happy, productive employees are the real win here — this award is validation of our efforts."

Feedback from employees at Cordial included:

  • "I have never met a group of people that were so respectful, kind, and open to learning and teaching from all levels. It truly has been a wonderful experience thus far and I would 100% refer this company to previous colleagues and friends."
  • "Culture [here] is real, [which is] rare for a company, especially remote, but you can feel it every day. Starts with our leadership being approachable, transparent, caring, but demanding and I respect their ability to make decisions about the business and keep us moving forward."
  • "Cordial is a fantastic place to work - best culture I have seen in over 15 years working. It doesn't feel like a remote workplace because of the connectivity fostered from the top down."
  • "I feel empowered to grow in my role, supported to put my family first, and encouraged to seek a good work-life balance. Everyone I have worked with at the company tries to do their best work and help others do their best work. It truly is a great place to work."
  • "Of all places I've worked at for the past 24 years, this company surpasses them all at every organizational and product level and standard. I would recommend this current company as a gold standard for businesses to learn from and aspire to."

Cordial's brand mission is to bring humanity and empathy to marketing — it's clear they do the same with their workplace."
