Mindbody Lands on Outside Magazine’s Best Places to Work List for Third Time
Global software provider is recognized for its healthy workplace culture
San Luis Obispo, CA– October 2, 2014– Mindbody, a leading, global provider of web and mobile business management solutions to the combined health, wellness and beauty industries, was named to Outside Magazine’s 2014 “Best Places to Work.”
Outside’s “Best Places to Work” project celebrates innovative companies that are setting a new standard for a healthy work-life balance. This year marks the third time Mindbody has been recognized, making the list previously in 2010 and 2013.
“We actively promote the health, wellness and professional growth of our team members. As such, we are thrilled to have earned Outside Magazine’s recognition as a Best Place to Work for the third time,” said Rick Stollmeyer, CEO and Co-founder of Mindbody. “Working at Mindbody is about much more than earning a paycheck. Our goal is to enable our team members to live lives full of purpose, meaning and growth.”
Outside Magazine’s List is determined through employee-satisfaction surveys that collect information about benefits, compensation, policies, job satisfaction, environmental initiatives and community outreach programs. All of the results are analyzed by Best Companies Group experts, who select companies that best empower their employees to live active and balanced lives.
Mindbody’s wellness program focuses on a wide variety of healthy living choices. Employees receive: Mindbody Exchange Wellness Cards to use with local wellness providers; onsite fitness classes, massage therapy and acupuncture; fresh produce deliveries; tobacco cessation programs; recess activities; flu shots and free fruit and infused water. This year Mindbody expanded its wellness initiatives with the launch of its first internal wellness challenge. Participants lost a total of 644 pounds and 1,052 inches over a three-month period. Throughout the challenge, participants received gym memberships, personal training, nutritional consulting and Jawbone UP24 wearable devices to track sleep and movement.
Mindbody’s wellness program started as an employer-subsidized voucher system that has evolved into a new corporate wellness product for the company, Mindbody Exchange. With Mindbody Exchange, employers nationwide can pay for all or some of the fitness and wellness services their employees use within Mindbody’s worldwide network of wellness practitioners.
