CHANDLER, Ariz. (Feb. 16, 2023)—Commit Agency, a leading full-service advertising agency based in Chandler, has been named as one of the country’s best places to work for advertising professionals.

 

Commit Agency was the only Arizona agency to be recognized in Ad Age’s “Best Places to Work 2023,” an annual ranking of companies that lead the pack in factors ranging from pay and benefits to corporate culture and leadership. Commit Agency earned the number two spot in the list of companies with up to 200 employees.

 

Ad Age honored the winners and revealed the rankings in Ad Age’s Best Places to Work print issue (published Jan. 23) and online at AdAge.com.

 

“Every year for the past several years, we have been recognized locally as a ‘best place to work,’ but to be recognized as one of the best agencies in the country to work at is a tremendous honor,” said David Ralls, president of Commit Agency. “This recognition is a testament to our commitment to our team, which is the lifeblood of our organization.”

 

Ad Age Best Places to Work 2023 honors 50 companies that did a standout job over the past year as the ad business met with the challenges of a weakening economy, changing media market and a continued tight talent pool.

 

The winners—top companies with 200 or fewer employees and top companies with more than 200 employees—reflect the highest overall numerical scores based on an analysis of questionnaires submitted by employers and survey responses from their employees.

 

Ad Age’s scoring system factors in employee responses on topics including pay and benefits and seven other core focus areas (75% of the score) and a company’s policies and practices on areas including pay and benefits, work/life balance, recruitment, training and development (25% of the score).

 

“The tight labor market forced every business in the industry to compete for talent, and the 2023 Best Places to Work winners proved the value of understanding what employees want today,” said Dan Peres, president and editor-in-chief of Ad Age. “Companies will face challenges this year with the economy and ongoing effects of the pandemic, but winning workplaces understand that taking care of employees is central to business success.”

 

Ad Age produced Best Places to Work 2023 in partnership with Best Companies Group, a research firm specializing in identifying and recognizing great places to work. The competition was open to agencies, ad tech firms, brand or corporate marketing departments or groups and in-house agencies of marketers.
