Kronos Indianapolis Tech Center of Excellence Also Racks up Regional Honors

LOWELL, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kronos Incorporated today announced it has been named by Forbes as one of the top three places to work in IT, Internet, Software & Services on Forbes’ America’s Best Midsize Employers list. Additionally, Kronos won two separate honors for its Indianapolis Tech Center of Excellence, including being named a top 10 place to work in Indiana, where the company has its second-largest office in North America.

News Facts

• Kronos made the annual Forbes America’s Best Midsize Employers list for the fourth consecutive year, which honors employers with more than 1,000 employees based on an independent survey conducted by Statista.com.
  • The survey was conducted among more than 30,000 American employees across 25 industry sectors. Willingness to recommend one’s own employer was the most important metric of the Forbes assessment, and the mix of respondents (gender, age, region, educational level, and ethnicity) is representative of the overall U.S. workforce.
  • Kronos was the third-ranked employer in the IT, Internet, Software & Services category, and the highest-rated HCM and workforce management solutions provider.
• The Kronos Indianapolis Tech Center of Excellence, which first opened its doors in 2012, was recently honored with two awards for its WorkInspired culture:
  • Kronos was named a top 10 Best Place to Work in Indiana in the 13^th annual statewide ranking compiled by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce and Best Companies Group. The rankings identify, recognize, and honor employers in Indiana that benefit the state’s economy, workforce, and businesses. Rankings are determined by a two-part survey process: an examination of workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems, and demographics plus an anonymous survey of workers to measure employee experience.

  • Kronos’ Indianapolis Tech Center of Excellence, which is home to about 200 Kronites, was also honored with an Indianapolis TechPoint Mira “Best Tech Event” Award for its innovative and engaging interview process, which is used to hire the best and brightest talent from local Indiana colleges and universities. The Kronos Indianapolis Tech Center of Excellence Interview Blitz is a full-day event providing the next generation of technology leaders with networking, interviewing, and case study competition activities to evaluate their collaboration, innovation, and communication skills. A new class of 20 Indianapolis-based Kronites who recently participated in the Interview Blitz will start in June.

  • Making the prestigious FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For^® list.
  • Fortune and Great Place to Work^® naming Kronos one of the 20 “Best Workplaces in Technology,” while Vice President of Engineering Susan Rossnick was a recipient of the inaugural Great Place to Work For All Leadership Award.
