At the annual celebration earlier this month, we learned that Primera came in at number 52 out of 105 in the small business category for the Chicago Tribune’s 2023 list of Top Workplaces. This honor marks our third consecutive year that we’ve been named to the Chicago Tribune list and recognized for our unique culture and community, something that we’re extremely proud of.

In addition to this recent ranking, Primera has been nationally recognized on the Top Workplace USA list for both 2022 and 2023. This recognition is based on direct employee feedback collected through an online survey powered by Energage, a leading research corporation. You can read more about our national distinction here.
