To determine the Best Workplaces in Technology list, Great Place to Work analyzed responses representing more than 220,000 employees in the tech industry at Great Place to Work-Certified™ organizations. Sumo Logic ranked #22 on the list of small-medium businesses, based on employee survey responses anonymously rating their employers.
“Sumo Logic is revolutionizing analytics for the digital era, providing the leading machine data analytics platform to empower the people who power modern business.

We want our employees to reflect on their time at Sumo Logic with great pride and know it was a game-changer in their professional careers. Being included on this prestigious list is a proud moment for us and terrific validation that we are on the right path in building a legendary company.”

The company is also a proud sponsor of Superposition II, a hackathon geared toward middle- and high school-aged students interested in computer science and engineering. This sense of purpose-driven work stems from Sumo Logic’s five core values: “Learning Culture,” “Work with Heart,” “One Single Agenda,” “Bring Light to Dark” and “We’re In It with Our Customers.” These pillars serve as guideposts, resulting in a culture that emphasizes people first, last and always.
