Guidewire Software Named a Best Place to Work for Second Consecutive Year

Guidewire ranked eighth in the mid-size companies category of the San Francisco Business Times’ and Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal’s Best Places to Work in the Bay Area list

Guidewire Software®, a leading provider of flexible core systems to property/casualty insurers, today announced that it has been named one of the Best Places to Work in the Bay Area 2011 by the San Francisco Business Times and the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal in their eighth annual award. Guidewire placed eighth among 50 companies in the mid-size companies (101 to 500 employees) category.

“We’re very proud to receive recognition as being a best place to work for a second consecutive year,” said Marcus Ryu, chief executive officer, Guidewire Software. “Our intention when we founded Guidewire was to build a better kind of software company, one which helps solve complex business problems in a collegial environment and operates with the utmost integrity. This recognition would not be possible without the truly great group of employees we have in the Bay Area where we are headquartered, as well as those around the world. We thank the San Francisco Business Times and the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal for this honor.”

Employees participated in an independent, third-party survey that ranks companies based on their employees’ ratings of work environment, corporate culture, benefits, and compensation. In all, 125 Bay Area companies received Best Places to Work awards.
