Nextiva (www.nextiva.com), an industry-leading cloud-based communications provider, announced today that it has reached a record milestone of employing 1,000 team members.

Nextiva ranked as one of the top twenty company cultures in America with an A+ rating on Comparably, putting it alongside Google, Costco, LinkedIn, and Microsoft. The company has experienced rapid growth since it was co-founded in 2008 by its CEO, Tomas Gorny, who also recently achieved a 98% rating as CEO from Comparably.

Nextiva started with four employees in a small Tempe, AZ office. By December 2011, the company employed more than 200 people and had migrated to its current headquarters in Scottsdale, AZ. In early 2016, Nextiva hired its 500th employee; by 2017, the company had grown to more than 750 team members. The past two years have seen explosive growth for the cloud-based communications provider, including the addition of offices in Europe, Mexico, and California.

In addition to the Top Company Culture award from Comparably, Nextiva has also received numerous “best place to work” awards thanks to its highly autonomous and entrepreneurial company culture. Nextiva was named the third Healthiest Employer by the Phoenix Business Journal, ranked on Entrepreneur’s 2018 Top Company Cultures list, and gained recognition as one of the 500 fastest growing Tech Companies in America by Deloitte.

“It wasn’t long ago that we were a small startup with a handful of employees,” said Kathi Winter, Nextiva’s Chief Human Resources Officer. “All of this was made possible by the talented team members that have been part of this organization throughout the years. Nextiva’s future looks bright; we have an incredible journey ahead.”

Nextiva’s increase in hiring reflects its dedication to innovation and providing Amazing Service® to its more than 100,000 business customers. Celebrating its 10th year in business in 2018, the company's team growth has been exponentially higher than that of its competitors.
