The annual employee-based survey also recognized CST for employee well-being, purpose & values, work-life flexibility, leadership, innovation, and compensation & benefits
Danvers, MA, USA, December 6th, 2024–Cell Signaling Technology (CST), a life science discovery technology company and leading provider of antibodies, kits, and services, has been named one of the Top Places to Work in Massachusetts in the annual employee-based survey from The Boston Globe. Marking CST’s 7th appearance on the list, the recognition is a testament to the company’s commitment to fostering an inclusive, supportive, and dynamic work environment.
Top Places to Work recognizes the most admired workplaces in Massachusetts voted on by the people who know them best—their employees. The survey measures employee opinions about their company’s direction, execution, connection, management, work, pay, benefits, and engagement. Based on the results of the 2024 survey, CST was named a Top Place to Work and was also recognized by Energage in the following Culture Excellence awards categories: Compensation & Benefits, Employee Well-Being, Innovation, Leadership, Professional Development, Purpose & Values, and Work-Life Flexibility.
“Since our founding 25 years ago, CST has been about more than just advancing science—we’re also deeply committed to doing good for our employees, our communities, and our planet,” said Margaret Murray, Vice President of Global Human Resources at CST. “We balance our fast-paced, innovative work environment with a commitment to employee well-being and development, inclusivity and engagement, and collaboration and teamwork. Being named a Top Place to Work reflects our dedication to creating a workplace where people thrive, and it proves that corporate success in the competitive biotechnology industry can go hand-in-hand with doing the right thing for our teams and the world around us.”
“The best employers pay attention to the many ways work changes—and the many ways it stays the same—and figure out how to keep people engaged and motivated through it all,” said Katie Johnston, the Globe’s Top Places to Work editor.
CST’s workplace initiatives include employee development and recognition programs, a visiting scientist lecture series, and opportunities for community engagement through philanthropy and volunteerism. The company also offers unique benefits such as onsite community gardens, free plant-based lunches, art exhibits, and team-building events designed to foster a sense of connection in a hybrid work environment.
The rankings in Top Places to Work are based on confidential survey information collected by Energage (formerly WorkplaceDynamics), an independent company specializing in employee engagement and retention, from nearly 68,000 employees at 323 Massachusetts organizations. The winners are constantly working to improve their workplaces, from making meetings more manageable in a virtual environment to pairing up new hires with more seasoned “buddies.”
CST is consistently recognized as a leader in sustainability and corporate social responsibility, including being named one of the Boston Business Journal’s Top Charitable Companies in Massachusetts for nine consecutive years. In 2022, CST was the first life science company to join 1% for the Planet, a global organization whose member businesses donate at least 1% of their total annual revenue to support a network of nonprofits tackling the planet's most pressing environmental issues.
