As we close out the year, we are thrilled to share that SourceCode has been named a Best Place to Work in 2020 by PRWeek. Each year, PRWeek surveys employees in the industry including small, midsize, large and extra large agencies on what factors they consider most important in the workplace. While factors including internal development, compensation, camaraderie and employee support have always been major decision makers, this year the judges also looked at these key issues through the COVID-19 lens. 

SourceCode was one of the small agencies awarded this year, and PRWeek specifically called out the following:

When it comes to any opportunity you want, “SourceCode Communications will find a way to help you work toward it,” raved one employee.

From a $1,500 stipend designated for personal development, training, conferences and networking events, to quarterly KPIs to help set goals and track metrics in order to measure professional as well as personal growth, the agency works hard to ensure staffers are “on the path they want to be on, not necessarily the one management outlines for you.”

After taking voluntary pay cuts during COVID-19 to ensure operations could continue and staff would not be affected, leadership went on to support Black Lives Matter by doubling down on the money it spent on diversity and employee development.

“SourceCode [leadership] really walks the walk,” explained one staffer. “They care deeply about their employees and show it every day. Their transparency during the pandemic has been unmatched. Management supports people at every corner. This firm remains true to its roots with integrity.”

To keep employees safe, SourceCode was “one of the first, if not the first, company to go remote in New York,” one staffer pointed out – an extension of the agency’s employee-first spirit. “Our leaders are invested in everyone’s interests and in ensuring we are all happy, personally and professionally,” said another staffer. “I’ve never felt as supported as I do at SourceCode.”

This recognition is SourceCode’s tenth agency win in 2020, including recently being named one of America’s Best PR Agency by Forbes, Outstanding Boutique Agency by PRWeek, and a Top Place to Work in PR for the third year in a row by PRNEWS.
