WALTHAM, Mass., April 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Lionbridge Technologies is proud to announce it has again been named one of America's Best Employers by Forbes, which also recognized Lionbridge as a Best Employer for Women in 2018. The 2019 list recognizes organizations across a variety of industries that employ more than 1,000 people in the U.S.

Working with Statista, Forbes deployed an independent survey to a representative sample of the US workforce and reached more than 50,000 employees overall. The rankings were mainly assessed based on the likelihood that an employee would recommend their employer to friends and family versus recommend a different employer. Other questions included inquiries about company culture, career development, gender equality, and compensation.

"Our foundational priorities are our people and customers," said John Fennelly, CEO of Lionbridge. "We're very proud of the progress we've made in creating an environment that allows our talent to expand their skillsets and interests. This has also helped us accelerate our innovation efforts."

Ann Lazarus-Barnes, Lionbridge's Chief People Officer, said the award is a testament to the company's dedication to its employees. "Our community's strength is an immeasurably important part of our success and we are always on the lookout for the best and brightest to join us," she said.
