The company was among the winners in every category awarded by Comparably this quarter, including Best CEOs for Women, Best CEOs for Diverse Employees, Best Leadership Teams and Best Companies for Professional Development.

These awards are a testament to that foundation, which continues to attract and retain the best and brightest talent. I'm incredibly proud of our team, and that Smartsheet is being recognized for what I've known to be true—we have an exceptional culture where every employee can flourish.”
Smartsheet CEO Mark Mader was ranked #11 on the Best CEOs for Women list and #13 on the Best CEOs for Diverse Employees list. Smartsheet was ranked #15 on the Best Leadership Teams list along with #7 on the Best Companies for Professional Development list.
Comparably Awards are derived from sentiment ratings by employees who anonymously rated their employers on Comparably.com. The final data set was compiled from nearly 10 million ratings across 50,000 U.S. companies.
"Smartsheet has earned its place among the best of the best leaders, according to employee ratings," said Comparably CEO Jason Nazar. "Mark Mader and his management team are consistently praised for providing a transparent workplace where all employees are given opportunities to collaborate, grow, and thrive."
