IAA Earns 2023 Great Place to Work Certification™

Company recognized for workplace culture, employee experience and leadership

IAA, Inc. (NYSE: IAA), a leading global digital marketplace connecting vehicle buyers and sellers, announces that it has been certified by Great Place to Work® for the fifth consecutive year. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at IAA. This year, 75% of employees said IAA is a great place to work – 18% higher than the average U.S. company.

Great Place to Work is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

“Great Place to Work Certification isn’t something that comes easily – it takes ongoing dedication to the employee experience,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place to Work. “It’s the only official recognition determined by employees’ real-time reports of their company culture. Earning this designation means that IAA is one of the best companies to work for in the country.”

This award follows IAA also having been named to the Forbes list of America’s Best Midsize Employers 2023, presented by Forbes and Statista Inc. The awards list can be viewed on the Forbes website.

“I’m very proud that IAA has been recognized by GPTW as a ‘People First’ culture for the fifth year running,” said John Kett, Chief Executive Officer and President of IAA. “This certification, on top of making Forbes’ list of America’s Best Midsize Employers, reinforces our dedication to organizational clarity and our focus on creating a positive working environment and culture. It is an honor to work alongside such a strong, diverse and devoted team each and every day.”

According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.
