Several Houston-based companies are among the best places to work in Texas, according to a new study. This information comes from Great Place to Work, a company that surveys millions of employees to analyze the workplace cultures of some of the world’s largest companies.

To determine its list of the best places to work in Texas in 2021, the company analyzed feedback from confidential surveys from more than 73,000 Texas employees.

To ensure that companies have a sufficient presence in Texas, a minimum of 10 people from Texas had to take the survey and at least 5% of the respondents in large companies and at least 20% in small and medium-sized companies had to be from Texas. Great Place to Work said about the methodology.

For the category of small and medium-sized enterprises, companies with 10 to 999 people were taken into account, while for the category of large companies, companies with 1,000 or more employees were taken into account.

“Congratulations to the best places to work in Texas,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of Great Place to Work, in a statement. “These companies are characterized by the fact that they are built on a basis of trust. Your executives can expect excellent business results as their great employee experience is among the best in the country. And not just for the C-Suite, but for every demographic group and every level of the organization. “

While no large Texas-based companies made the list, several appeared in the small and medium-sized business category.

Houston-based Venterra Realty ranks # 1 on the Lone Star State’s list of Best Small and Medium-Sized Employers, down from # 2 last year.

“An award of this magnitude is the result of our team members’ continued commitment to excellence and Venterra’s core values,” said Venterra CEO John Foresi in a statement.

Other Texas-based companies that are among the state’s top places to work include Granite Properties, Republic State Mortgage Co., Freese and Nichols, OJO Labs, Pariveda Solutions, American Campus Communities, The Zebra, and Hilltop Residential.
