Leading Sri Lankan technology company 99x was recently awarded the Great Place to Work (GPTW) Legend status by the Great Place to Work Institute, following its achievements for the 10th consecutive year.
The coveted position highlights 99x’s unwavering commitment to maintaining an open and diverse workplace for employees and standing by its workforce amidst unprecedented times. This year, the company was also ranked as a Best Workplace and a Best IT/ITES Workplace in Sri Lanka.
Since its inaugural placing on the Great Place to Work’s Cultural Audit in 2013, 99x has consistently been named as one of Sri Lanka’s best workplaces, ranking itself as a Best Workplace in Asia for four consecutive years from 2018 to 2021 and now attaining Legend status, one of only three companies to do so in the country. 99x congratulates AIA and DIMO for their outstanding people practices through the years.
Despite the challenging times posed by harsh macroeconomic conditions, 99x has maintained its people-focus by implementing timely corrective measures. Achieving the Legend status is a testament to 99x’s undiminished focus on constantly improving its workplace culture.
“We are extremely honoured and grateful for the support and recognition we have received from the Great Place to Work Institute and extremely humbled to be a Great Place to Work Legend. This is a tribute to how we practice our culture within the workplace. Adapting to changes in our business model, facing the new normal amidst the pandemic and economic challenges and placing our teams as the best asset we could have, are some of the key principles that allowed us to achieve this status,” said 99x CEO and Founder Mano Sekaram.
