Built In’s Best Place to Work Awards is an annual program that includes companies of all sizes, from startups to those in the enterprise, and honors both remote-first employers as well as companies in the eight largest tech markets across the U.S.
Built In determines the winners of Best Places to Work based on an algorithm, using company data about compensation, benefits and companywide programming.

It has grown exponentially in recent years, now with over 175 employees who have unparalleled flexibility and work-life balance, best in class workplace benefits, and a creative and collaborative team that has only become more engaged in Wasabi’s success.
“Wasabi made the decision to become fully remote over the last year, and the results speak for themselves. We are coming off our most successful year yet, and that is because our employees love the flexibility and lack of stress that comes with working from home. We are all enjoying our work more than ever,” said David Friend, co-founder and CEO, Wasabi Technologies. “Wasabi strives to be a great place to work by showing trust in our employees’ abilities, and this honor from Built In is a testament to the enthusiasm and creativity they bring to Wasabi every single day.”
