Comcast Greater Chicago Region Recognized for 12th Consecutive Year
July 8, 2021 — Every year, companies throughout the greater Chicago region compete to be named one of “Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For®.” Only companies that distinguish themselves as having the most innovative and thoughtful human resources approach can be bestowed this honor. Comcast is among this year’s recipients and has been recognized for the twelfth consecutive year. (See following list for winners.)
An independent research firm evaluates each company’s entry, based on various categories. These include Compensation, Benefits and Employee Solutions; Employee Enrichment, Engagement and Retention; Employee Education and Development; Recruitment, Selection and Orientation; Employee Achievement and Recognition; Communication and Shared Vision; Diversity and Inclusion; Work-Life Balance; Community Initiatives and Strategic Company Performance. With over 20 years of experience conducting the Best and Brightest competitions, the National Association for Business Resources (NABR) has identified numerous best Human Resource practices and provided benchmarking for companies that continue to be leaders in employment standards.
“The Best and Brightest is a powerful community of elite leaders who share ideas and practices, and have proven they are employers of choice. Best and Brightest winning companies have also been a voice for important actions in creating a sustainable culture that works, ensuring the wellbeing of their employees come first,” said Jennifer Kluge, President and CEO, Best and Brightest Programs.
“We’re incredibly honored to be recognized again this year,” said John Crowley, Comcast Greater Chicago Region Senior Vice President. “Our employees are the heart of Comcast. We value and respect each and every one of our employees, and this award is a reflection of our work to create an inclusive and supportive culture.”
Comcast and the other selected companies will be honored on Thursday, July 22, 2021, on a virtual platform, and the winning companies also compete for 13 elite awards, one granted for each category. Also, an overall winner that has excelled in all categories will be honored with a “Best of the Best Overall” award. The elite award winners will be revealed during the digital presentation.
