We’re honored to announce that MarksNelson, a Springline company, has been recognized for the third year in a row for its stellar workplace culture. We have been certified by Great Place to Work, the global authority on workplace culture.
The certification evaluated our culture from the employee perspective to best evaluate the internal health of the firm. Through a company-wide employee Trust Index Survey and the Culture Brief company questionnaire, the process measures the level of trust in the organization and the consistency of employee experience.
The results of our 2025 survey showed that 97% of team members say the firm is a great place to work, with the top-scoring category was a Sense of Community among team members (at 97%). And when asked what team members like most about MarksNelson, the majority said it was the people.
MarksNelson was rated relative to other companies of the same size across all industries, not only firms in the accounting field. Each team member answered 14 demographic questions and responded to 60 statements across a five-point consistency scale, along with two open-ended questions. The responses gathered their opinion on clear and honest leadership, fair treatment, recognition, pride and a sense of belonging.
Based in Oakland, California, the Great Place to Work organization has surveyed more than 100 million employees around the world since 1992. The group reports that certified companies on average experience half the turnover rates of a typical workplace, and a 2023 study found that candidates were 15 times more likely to favor an employer that had been certified as a Great Place to Work by its own team members.
This year’s certification as a Great Place to Work follows our August 2023 and October 2024 certification as well as recognition by Accounting Today, a leading provider of business news for the accounting community, which named us a Best Accounting Firms to Work For the last three years.
