Iowa’s CST Holdings Company Nationally Ranked as a Top Place to Work
Company receives national and local recognition as a Top Workplace
DES MOINES, IOWA - CST Holdings Company has been nationally ranked as a top workplace among companies with 500-999 employees. CST was first recognized by the Des Moines Register as a top Iowa workplace, and recently received designation nationally as a top workplace. The company also received recognition as a Best Place for Working Parents® Iowa.
The award is based entirely on employee engagement survey feedback, conducted by Energage, a third-party research company. The survey asked employees to rate CST on 15 drivers related to engaged work environment, company culture, leadership, and overall job satisfaction. Rankings for Top Workplaces lists are based on companies meeting criteria built upon more than 15 years of engagement survey data from more than 70,000 global companies.
“CST is honored to be recognized as a top workplace as this designation is from our employees’ feedback. We have an employee-driven culture, and we pride ourselves on ensuring that we create a workplace where our employees can deliver amazing service, inspire positive change and produce exceptional results,” said Chief Human Resources Officer Amanda Sedars.
In addition to the Top Workplaces USA 2021 recognition, CST was also named a Best Place for Working Parents®. The designation recognizes employers with family-friendly policies, such as workplace flexibility. Since the COVID pandemic, CST increased its focus on hiring and retaining top talent by supporting fully remote and flexible work arrangements, as well as enabling technology to promote collaboration across the country. With no geographic boundaries, and no need to go into an office, remote employees are able to focus on work/life balance as well.
“It’s important to us that all employees feel engaged and can deliver their best work, and we recognize that this comes down to creating a culture of teamwork and flexibility,” said Sedars. “Our ability to recruit and retain top talent is rooted in creating a place where employees can have quality benefits and programs designed at fostering work/life integration.
