Workplace Finds Chicago #1

Omaha, NE, June 06, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Quantum Workplace, an HR technology company known for its
Best Places to Work program, recently released its list of most engaged cities in the U.S.

Leveraging employee surveys from over 8,700 organizations and half a million employees who
participated in the Best Places to Work program, Quantum Workplace aggregated contest data from 47
cities to identify locations with the highest percentage of engaged employees. In order to be considered
for the list, each city needed at least 30 participating organizations in the Best Places to Work contest.

Cities ranged from having 77% of employees engaged to 70% of employees engaged, a gap of 7
percentage points. On average, 73 percent of employees were engaged in the top 10 cities.

The following cities ranked highest by percent of engaged employees:

Chicago, 77.27%
Austin, 75.68%
Huntsville, 74.59%
Miami-Dade, 73.32%
Sacramento, 73.21%
Atlanta, 73.00%
Washington, D.C., 72.49%
Charlotte, 71.71%
Nashville, 71.30%
Denver, 70.83%

This is Chicago's first year in the top ten cities. Four cities have been on the top ten list five years in a
row: Nashville, Washington, D.C., Miami-Dade, and Austin.

Employee engagement is critical to a city's economic growth; area leaders and chambers of commerce
should be doing all they can to train organizations in employee engagement, said Quantum Workplace
CEO, Greg Harris.
