The Minneapolis-based PR agency is once again
recognized nationally for its outstanding company
culture
MINNEAPOLIS, June 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Media Minefield is
delighted to be named to Inc.'s annual Best Workplaces list. The
award recognizes companies across the U.S. that are setting the
standard for strong workplace cultures.
After collecting thousands of submissions, Inc. selected this
year's honorees. Nominees took part in an employee survey,
conducted by Quantum Workplace, which included topics such as
management effectiveness, perks and fostering employee growth. The
organization's benefits were also audited to determine its overall
score and ranking.
4-Day Mindset
Because PR agencies work closely with media outlets that operate
24/7, 4-day workweeks are unheard of in the industry. However,
founder and CEO Kristi Piehl knew
Media Minefield could adopt a 4-Day Mindset (4M), while still providing extraordinary service
to its clients.
Media Minefield's version of the 4-day workweek, which became
permanent in 2023, empowers employees to shift their weekly work
hours to fit both their personal and client needs.
"Thanks to 4M, our employees feel
more in charge of their calendars and workflow," says Piehl. "Many
say they can show up better at work and in the community because of
this initiative."
Commitment to Core Values
Media Minefield's commitment to embracing its core values is
foundational to its success. Employees consistently recognize one
another for exhibiting core values in their day-to-day work, with a
grand prize of an all-expense-paid vacation awarded each year to an
employee who exemplifies those values.
Media Minefield also offers paid time off for birthdays,
personal development opportunities and a paid one-month sabbatical
for a decade of employment, among other benefits. The company has
won numerous awards and achieved national rankings for its growth
and culture including Inc. 5000 and is Great Place to Work
Certified™.
"At Media Minefield, we continuously look for ways to level up
while staying true to our core values," says Piehl. "Our
award-winning culture is something everyone owns and feels part
of."
