We’re thrilled to share that Actian has been recognized as a Top Workplace of 2022 by the Austin American-Statesman for the third year in a row! The Austin American-Statesman’s Top Workplaces of Greater Austin project recognizes the best places to work in the Austin metro area, based solely on employee feedback. The program considers 15 culture-drivers that are critical to the success of any organization, including factors such as alignment, execution, and connection.

At Actian, we strive to develop a workplace that fosters innovation and allows our dynamic team to thrive on creating technology for the next generation. “Employee-first” is the way we do business, and we place a huge emphasis on our people and culture. We want each employee to have the opportunity to show up as their authentic self, enabling them to do their very best work by offering a warm, welcoming, and friendly environment. It’s our goal to ensure our employees know that they always matter and that they understand the critical part they each play in making our customers and our company successful.

We do this by following several core values:

  • Innovation: We believe in innovation broadly across all functions. We are committed to being on the cutting edge of technology by ambitiously looking for opportunities to improve by expanding our patent portfolio, refining our approach, continuing to innovate and enhancing the products and services we offer our customers.
  • Teaming to Win: We are comprised of experienced, talented people who believe in the power of our team. We are devoted to leveraging the power of diverse, individual perspectives and new ideas with respectful discussion and debate, treating all with dignity and respect.
  • Customer Focus: We recognize that customers depend on us to conduct their business. Most have been with us for many years. We work collaboratively with our customers and prospects to deliver reliable, performant products that bring substantial value.
  • Decisive Action: We are bold and decisive in our actions. We make prudent, thoughtful decisions and act with clear intent and strong business judgment. We approach challenges directly, confidently, and collaboratively, without hubris or arrogance.
  • Candid Communications: We communicate to our investors, customers, partners, and internal teams openly and honestly. We impart accurate information, act with sincerity, building trust and establishing mutual respect.
  • Integrity: We are committed to working ethically and with complete integrity in all that we do and place trust in our people to act accordingly. We mean what we say and deliver on our commitments.

In addition to being named a Top Workplace, Actian has been honored with several Culture Excellence Awards, given to showcase strong values of companies that rank in the top 25% of surveyed organizations. This year, Actian has received Culture Excellence Awards in the categories of Innovation, Work-Life Flexibility, Compensation and Benefits, Leadership, Employee Appreciation, Employee Well-being and Professional Development.

We are truly honored to be recognized by our employees and would like to share our sincerest gratitude to everyone who voted!
