Motive is honored to be named one of Battery Ventures Highest-Rated Cloud Companies to Work For. (See the complete list below.)
This is the third year global investment firm Battery Ventures has ranked the 50 Highest-Rated Private Cloud Computing Companies to Work For (with data provided to Battery from Glassdoor) This year’s list highlights several new, fast-growing cloud companies—including many that are publicly traded and outside the tech-focused hub of Silicon Valley.
The companies on the list represent employees who have the highest levels of satisfaction at work, according to their feedback shared on Glassdoor (one of the world’s largest job and recruiting sites).
Motive’s evolving culture
When asked about Motive’s unique culture, Caitlin Schlakman, Motives VP of Talent, said, “I don’t think culture is something we build. Rather, it’s something to be nurtured, reinforced, amplified, and shared. We’ve been incredibly lucky. We’ve grown from 400 employees to 1,000 in 12 months. As we look to expand our team to more than 2,000 employees over the next 18 months, we will be diligent in protecting and fostering a humble culture.”
As Battery Ventures points out, “Great company culture isn’t just about free lunches, dogs at the office and ping-pong tables. Our data shows some real connections between company culture and financial performance: The companies on our list boast significantly higher positive employee ‘business outlook’ ratings than the Glassdoor average, for example.”
Motive employees shared what they like best about the culture. Even though our company offers fun perks like catered lunches, and yes, a ping pong table, and regular company off-sites, employees seemed to value collaboration, leadership transparency, and taking pride in serving our customers.

Here’s what some Motive employees had to say about our growing work environment:
“I’m very impressed with the professionalism, sincerity, and drive exhibited by the entire staff. It’s refreshing to have a leadership team that is really making the extra effort to make Motive a place where people are genuinely happy to go to work.”
“One of the most collaborative and transparent companies – which is amazing, especially with the radical scaling that’s happened overnight. The people who do really well take the initiative, from bringing ideas, executing them, and optimizing.”
“I’ve worked at multiple SaaS companies, across many different segments, serving multiple industries. This is the first company I’ve been a part of that has it all. The leadership at the top is experienced and outstanding. The industry has a huge potential that’s completely underserved by technology. The culture is amazing; employees can be themselves, along with having the ability to make a real impact.”
“This company has done an incredible job getting top talent and great people. It’s honestly, a joy to come to work every day, not to mention the flexibility when you need it to take time off.”
“CEO and COO are extremely approachable and transparent in everything the business does. It’s no wonder the company is one of the fastest growing SaaS companies in history and another reason we are poised to scale on top of that.”
