Go1 named one of LinkedIn's 2019 Top Startups in Australia
We are excited to have been recognised as one of the best startups to work for in Australia by LinkedIn.
This is the second consecutive year Go1 has been named in LinkedIn’s Top Startup in Australia list.
LinkedIn Top Startups is an annual ranking of the hottest startups to work for around the world. The list is compiled by LinkedIn’s editorial team through a combination of proprietary platform data and editorial expertise to spotlight new and fast-growing companies that are attracting attention and recruiting top talent.
Go1 co-founder Vu Tran said the award recognises Go1’s priority in its people and culture – vital ingredients for being a great place to work.
"We’re delighted to get this award from LinkedIn. It’s recognition of the effort everyone has and continues to put in to make Go1 a supportive and rewarding company to work for,” Mr Tran said.
“We’re hopeful this award will help us to continue to attract the best talent in Australia and internationally as we expand and create more alliances with partners that share our workplace philosophy.
"One of our key practices is supporting employees to advance themselves. Pursuing targeted and relevant training is important not just for individuals but also for the success of the organisation. Enabling people to run their own training agenda and go beyond their core training has big benefits for everyone,” he said.
Employee wellbeing and mental health are top priorities at Go1, where staff are encouraged to maintain a healthy balance between work and their private lives.
"A safe, supportive workplace means healthier employees, better performance and productivity. Awards such as LinkedIn Top Startups are very important for raising awareness of how important a supportive work environment can be, both for attracting new talent and retaining talent. This is all the more critical given the global skills shortage, and the challenge many startups face in attracting the right people," Mr Tran said.
