SAN JOSE, CA – Apr 21, 2015 — /BackupReview.info/ — Nimble Storage (NYSE: NMBL), the flash storage solutions company, today announced that the company has been named as a winner of the 2015 Bay Area Best Places To Work, an awards program presented by the San Francisco Business Times and Silicon Valley Business Journal. Companies named to the 2015 list were honored for creating exceptional workplaces that are highly valued by employees.

Employees from hundreds of San Francisco Bay Area companies participated in an independent, third-party survey, ranking their companies on work culture, management practices, trust with co-workers, benefits, overall compensation, longevity, trust in senior leaders, and feeling valued. Participating companies were evaluated, ranked, and categorized according to the number of Bay Area employees.

Nimble remains focused on building an enduring culture based on two key principles. First, an employee charter that commits to delivering fair and competitive financial incentives, challenging work that enables employees to learn, grow and develop, and the opportunity to work with colleagues who foster collaboration. Secondly, a commitment to our foundational values that include No Jerks, Think Creatively, Be Open, and Make it Happen.

Nimble fosters open dialogue across the organization through employee surveys and focus groups. As a direct result of employee engagement and feedback, Nimble introduced a new time-off program that includes an impressive 90 days of paid sick leave, 19 company holidays and company-wide breaks during the weeks following Christmas and preceding Independence Day. Nimble also recently launched the Kudos Program, a peer-to-peer recognition program that enables employees to submit stories of employee accomplishments that reinforce the company’s culture, and formed an employee development program.
