Siili Solutions Plc Press release 19 March 2025 at 11:45 EET
Siili Solutions’ subsidiary VALA Group has won the Finnish Great Place to Work competition in the competition’s medium-sized company category. According to the Great Place to Work assessment, VALA’s strengths include community, equality, sense of belonging, credibility and communication.
Already for more than a decade, VALA has been purposefully building the best possible workplace, focusing especially on creating an exceptionally empathic culture. As part of Siili Group, VALA is a concrete pacemaker in Siili’s strategic goal to be the best possible place to work for digital development professionals.
”This win is confirmation for us that the work community we love is also measured as the best in Finland. Our vision is to be the Greatest Quality Company in Finland, and employee satisfaction is naturally at least half of this cake. VALA’s exceptionally empathetic and warm culture is undoubtedly behind our success. In addition, meaningful and interesting work is naturally at the heart of everything; As one of Finland’s leading software quality service companies, we can offer our employees the most interesting projects. When employees feel good and feel their work is meaningful, customers also receive the best possible service,” says VALA’s CEO Marcus Mattila.
”One important aspect that I would like to highlight is the management of self-directed organization. Our organization is self-directed, which requires a lot from VALA employees, management and culture. But when it works, it is still an excellent model, as our results now show. A good organizational culture is not created by miracles, but by everyday basics – presence, listening, clear guidelines and trust. When these are done well and consistently, an excellent result is created. This victory is the merit of every VALA employee,” adds Ada Ikäheimonen, VALA’s Head of People.
Great Place to Work has compiled an annual list of the best workplaces in Finland since 2022. The list is based on employee experience measured in personnel surveys and an analysis of the company’s culture.
