Rally Software Named #1 'Best Company to Work For' in Colorado for the Second Consecutive Year

BOULDER, Colo., Aug. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Rally®, the leader in Agile application lifecycle management (ALM), today announced that it has been named the #1 medium-sized "Best Company to Work for in Colorado" by ColoradoBiz Magazine for the second consecutive year. Published in the August 1 issue, ColoradoBiz Magazine's "Best Company to Work for in Colorado" initiative was designed to honor companies in Colorado that show dedication to their employees' growth and quality of life.

"Celebrating Colorado-based companies like Rally that have created and maintained a great workplace couldn't be more important," said Michael Cote, Editor of ColoradoBiz. "Keeping workers inspired and appreciated not only improves the bottom line, but creates dividends that transcend it."

"We have a shared vision at Rally that encourages employees to create their own personal and professional realities where passion, value and being the best in world intersect," said Tim Miller, Rally's CEO. "Our commitment to building a great company depends on everyone being comfortable sharing ideas and opinions, so we're thrilled to continue to foster a culture where we treat each person as a critical part of our success."

Among the company's core values are maintaining a healthy work-life balance, treating one another with respect, and giving back to the community. As part of the philanthropic culture of Rally, the company set aside 1% of its equity, upon founding, as part of the Entrepreneurs Foundation of Colorado. Rally's 1% philanthropy model also encourages Rally employees to pledge 1% of their paid time per year to volunteer for the non-profit of their choice.  

Behind the philanthropic culture is also serious business. As announced in January 2010, Rally closed a $16 million round of funding to accelerate the company's rapid growth. The company has also made two acquisitions this year – AgileZen, a leading Kanban-based project collaboration tool, and a mobile application for the iPhone, called Rally for the iPhone. Last year, the company nearly doubled its product revenue and the company recently topped 123,000 users of its product.
