KITCHENER, ON – We’re delighted to announce that for the sixth consecutive year, WalterFedy has been recognized as one of Waterloo Area’s Top Employers.
The annual selection, curated by the esteemed team at Mediacorp Canada Inc., underscores WalterFedy’s commitment to fostering exceptional workplaces, with a steadfast focus on eight criteria that have defined excellence since the competition’s inception:
- Workplace
- Work Atmosphere & Social
- Health, Financial & Family Benefits
- Vacation & Time Off
- Employee Communications
- Performance Management
- Training & Skills Development
- Community Involvement.
This year, the selection team highlighted WalterFedy’s commitment to flexibility in health benefits, referral bonuses for recruiting from personal networks, vacation, volunteer, and paid personal time off as reasons for selection.
Reflecting on this achievement, Kristina Leung, managing editor at Mediacorp, emphasized, “Flexibility as a whole has been a huge focus for winning employers, but what’s unique about the Waterloo area is how employers are able to learn from each other. There’s a noticeable trend in which top employers take the best of what the other companies in the region offer and extend it to their own employees. This competitive approach lessens the disparity in the benefits offered to all employees in the Kitchener-Waterloo region, regardless of industry.”
“Securing this award for the sixth consecutive year stands as a remarkable milestone for our organization and our dedicated team,” says Victoria Campbell, Director of Human Resources. “Our employees are vital in shaping WalterFedy’s growth, offering valuable feedback for continual improvements that greatly impact our overall employee experience.”
This announcement concludes a momentous year of growth for the WalterFedy team. This past year has been marked by an increase in our workforce of over 20%. This notable growth aligns with the unveiling of the newly renovated Toronto office, symbolizing the company’s dedication to advancing capabilities and fostering innovation. It’s a testament to our dedication to evolving and embracing opportunities that propel us toward an exciting future.
Garth Cressman, CEO, shared his vision for the future, saying, “As we continue to expand our presence, our goal is to foster impactful work opportunities for our team. We aim for our employees to find purpose in their work and take pride in being part of our team. Our business thrives when our employees grow and succeed, and we’re committed to nurturing an environment where both the team and the business grow together.”
