Case Study: Great Place To Work achieves 50% sales increase and record profitability with Reward Gateway

Great Place to Work overhauls employee benefits offering through easy-to-use platform with open communication at the core to see sales increase by 50% and profitability reaching all-time high

Great Place To Work, a 24-person management consultancy, faced falling employee engagement after a year of transformation and leadership change: staff described prior initiatives as tick-box exercises and survey results showed double-digit drops in reward, communication and involvement. To rebuild trust and better showcase benefits, Great Place To Work hired a Chief People Officer and partnered with Reward Gateway, adopting Reward Gateway’s employee engagement platform, The Place, to drive open communication and a refreshed benefits offering.

Using Reward Gateway’s platform The Place to centralise benefits and an internal newsfeed, Great Place To Work rolled out tailored initiatives — two WFH days, volunteering days, “My Time” and a Live a Dream Lottery, enhanced parental leave, free breakfast and summer hours — and actively promoted them via the platform. Six months later company sales were 50% higher year-on-year, profitability reached an all-time high, staff turnover was 0%, and new hires cited the culture and benefits as a key reason for joining.
