Global technology leader recognized by Great
Place to Work and Fortune magazine as a top company for women in
cybersecurity
CrowdStrike (Nasdaq: CRWD), a leader in cloud-delivered
protection of endpoints, cloud workloads, identity and data, today
announced its recognition as one of the Great Place to Work® and
Fortune magazine 2022 Best Workplaces for Women. This is
CrowdStrike’s first time being named to this prestigious list,
adding to the growing list of awards and recognition that
CrowdStrike has recently garnered for its culture and
leadership.
To determine the Best Workplaces for Women, Great Place to Work
analyzed the survey responses of over 640,000 women who work for
Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies that employ at least 50
women. The Fortune Best Workplaces for Women list is the only
company culture award in the United States that selects winners
based on how fairly women say they’re treated at their workplace.
Companies must also have at least 20 percent of non-executive
managers who are women, and at least one executive who is a woman.
In the Great Place to Work survey, 97% of CrowdStrike’s women said
CrowdStrike is a great place to work.
“This recognition is a significant milestone that exemplifies
our continuous efforts toward improving diversity, equity and
inclusion (DE&I) – and toward closing the broader cybersecurity
skills gap – in what is traditionally considered a male-dominated
industry,” said J.C. Herrera, chief human resources officer at
CrowdStrike. “Our support for women inside and outside the
CrowdStrike workforce starts at the top with leaders such as our
General Counsel Cathleen Anderson, who paved the way to ensure
women are represented and heard, and their needs are met across the
organization. We’ve made tremendous strides in shifting the
paradigm toward making our industry a better place for women, and
there is always more work to be done. The women of CrowdStrike make
extraordinary contributions toward defending our customers against
breaches and building up CrowdStrike as one of the best companies
in the business.”
To more effectively support women in the cybersecurity industry,
CrowdStrike established initiatives such as the NextGen Scholarship
program to provide financial support and internship opportunities
to undergraduate and graduate students studying cybersecurity and
artificial intelligence, many of whom are women. CrowdStrike also
regularly supports organizations such as Girls Who Code to further
foster the next generation of female talent in STEM industries.
Additionally, CrowdStrike established the employee group “Women of
CrowdStrike” – founded and led by General Counsel Cathleen Anderson
– to amplify and enable the progress of women in every step of
their career by supporting, investing in and empowering the global
community of women and their allies. Programs include content and
activities to highlight and support the development and advancement
of women, recruitment initiatives, networking opportunities,
mentoring and professional development.
“Congratulations to the Best Workplaces for Women and their
commitment to ensuring equity for women at every level of the
organization,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work.
“These companies showed up for women in new ways to help them cope
with challenges they face wherever they are—both inside and outside
of work. Women in these companies are seen, heard and valued.”
