If the first few weeks of January are any indication, 2023 will be another banner year for InfluxData.

We’ve been recognized in several new awards honoring our company and workplace culture. These types of awards are always exciting because they reflect the real-life sentiment of InfluxData employees and validate our mission to deliver on our core values.

InfluxData was included in Built In’s Best Places to Work list, finishing in the top 100 midsize companies in the U.S. Built In’s Best Places to Work List prides itself on recognizing the best tech companies for tech professionals. InfluxData has won three Best Workplaces awards from Comparably, including:

• Best Company Culture for Small and Mid-Sized Companies
• Best CEOs for Small and Mid-Sized Companies
• Best Small and Mid-Sized Companies for Women

That last award is a particular point of pride for InfluxData – we have an incredible group of women on our team and we always strive to encourage more women to contribute to open source projects. InfluxData believes the most critical thing aspiring female developers can do is find other women in the industry and get to know them. We encourage women developers to seek out mentors, build and maintain relationships, and feel empowered by the incredible work they’re doing. Our goal is to create an environment where our employees surround themselves with peers, managers, and leaders that are supportive and inspire other women to forge a career path in open source.

Embracing the remote-first workplace

In terms of work culture, InfluxData has embraced the rise of remote work – we are a fully remote company with a workforce distributed across the world. One of the main benefits we’ve seen with remote work is how it makes us more productive, while still ensuring we have work-life balance and time to pursue our interests outside of work. It has also helped us build a more diverse and inclusive workforce since we can tap into talent pools that were previously unavailable to us.

Living by our core values

Ultimately, our commitment to remote work has fully supported InfluxData’s core values, which we hire and lead by:

• We value each other
• We get stuff done
• We believe humility drives learning
• We embrace failure
• We are committed to open source

Once again, we are very proud of this latest wave of awards honoring our workplace culture, and we can’t wait to see what the rest of 2023 has in store!
