8x8 ranked among the top 100 global companies; recognized for employee trust, inclusion, and a purpose-driven culture

What does it take to become one of the most admired places to work on the planet? According to Newsweek, 8x8, Inc. (NASDAQ: EGHT) has the formula. The company behind the industry’s most integrated platform for customer and employee experience – uniting Contact Center, Unified Communications, and CPaaS solutions – has been named to Newsweek’s acclaimed Global Most Loved Workplaces 2025 list, landing a coveted spot in the top 100.

The honor is based on the Love of Workplace Index® from Best Practice Institute (BPI), which draws insights from surveys of over two million employees worldwide, extensive interviews with senior leaders, and analysis of external ratings, news coverage, and employee reviews.

“Our employees are at the heart of everything we do and are the only reason we are able to provide our customers and partners with impactful business solutions and services,” said Dr. Jeanette Winters, Chief Human Resources Officer at 8x8, Inc. “This recognition demonstrates 8x8’s commitment to its employees and its continued investment in fostering a dynamic, thriving workplace environment – it’s fantastic to see the impact of those efforts so strongly embraced and celebrated by our employees.”

Breaking Into the Top 100 — And Standing Alone

8x8 earned the No. 69 spot on Newsweek’s Global Most Loved Workplaces list – and was the only company in its category to make the cut. Newsweek and BPI evaluated companies around the world using their Love of Workplace Index, a rigorous framework that measures what truly matters to employees, including:

Collaboration and connection across teams
Optimism about the future
Shared values between employees and leadership
Mutual respect at every level
Opportunities for real achievement and growth

Beyond these core pillars, the list also considers how organizations support well-being, inclusion, advancement, and the overall human experience at work.

The result is a global ranking of the 100 companies where employees don’t just clock in – they believe in the mission, connect to the culture, and choose to stay.
