UKG

RANK6

As the COVID-19 pandemic loomed at the start of 2020, Ultimate Software and Kronos were in the midst of a transformation: The two announced their intention to merge into one unified provider of HR and workplace management solutions in February.

Updated, Sept. 1, 2021: Results are based on Great Place to Work® Certification™ for 2020. UKG acquired Great Place to Work on Sept. 1, 2021 and will be ineligible for rankings which consider Certification in 2021 and beyond.
