Comparably Awards are based entirely on anonymous employee feedback, with this year’s results compiled from 20 million ratings across 70,000 companies.

“Winning Happiest Employees for the second-year running is something we’re incredibly proud of,” said Julia Millidge, Chief People Officer at Payara. “It shows that our focus on wellbeing, work-life balance, and creating a truly supportive environment isn’t just words on a page it’s felt by our people every day. To also be recognised for our perks, benefits, and balance reflects our dedication to making Payara a place where people can thrive both personally and professionally.”
