Vaughan, ON, April 13, 2018 – Upstream Works Software Ltd., a provider of Omnichannel Contact Center solutions, announced today that Mediacorp Canada Inc. has named Upstream Works as one of Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers for 2018.

Now in its 5th year, Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers is an editorial competition that recognizes the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with the nation’s best workplaces and forward-thinking human resources policies. Employers are compared to other organizations in their industry to determine which offer the most progressive and forward-thinking programs.

It’s an attractive combination for employees looking to get the best of both worlds.”

Upstream Works provides a flexible workplace and encourages innovation in an agile work environment. Training programs, comprehensive benefits, employee stock ownership plan, hackathons, generous referral bonuses, and family-friendly social events all provide opportunities for growth, skill development, and work-life balance. Specific reasons for the selection of Upstream Works are outlined here.
