Progress and our leadership team have received multiple awards for fostering employee engagement and championing corporate social responsibility.

As a company that places a high value on people, nothing is more rewarding than being recognized for our company culture and commitment to inclusivity and equity. Our people and the global communities we serve are what make Progress a great place to work—and other organizations are taking notice.

Boston Business Journal, Built In and WomenTech are among the entities who have recognized Progress and our leadership team in the first half of 2023. From Best Places to Work awards to CSR achievements, our efforts have not gone unnoticed.

“It is delightful to see our team members receive accolades for their unmatched achievements,” said Yogesh Gupta, CEO, Progress. “I congratulate them and look forward to their continued contributions to our organization as well as to the broad tech industry. I’m also honored for the company to receive awards for our CSR efforts as well as for being a great place to work. I’m grateful to our employees whose unrelenting passion for making a difference in our communities and the world is truly inspiring. Our employees make our company a great place to work, and it is a wonderful accomplishment to have it recognized by leading organizations.”

Additionally, we were recognized by Built In’s Best Places to Work awards in multiple categories, including Boston Best Large Places to Work, Boston Best Places to Work and U.S. Best Large Places to Work.

Corporate Social Responsibility Awards

In the first half of the year, we’ve also been recognized for our commitment to inclusion, diversity and community service. Progress for Tomorrow, our CSR program, received silver in the Achievement in Corporate Social Responsibility category at the American Business “Stevie” Awards. In addition, Progress for Tomorrow was recognized in the Most Effective CSR Strategy category at the 2023 HR Distinction Awards.

Telerik School Academy also named Progress a valuable corporate partner in the 2022/2023 school year.

We aim to put our people at the center of everything we do. The three pillars of Progress for Tomorrow are our people, our global communities and our planet, and these pillars guide everything we do. These awards reflect the work we do to make sure we’re giving back to our employees and the communities we serve.
