GEON Performance Solutions Achieves Great Place To Work Recognition in Mexico, Canada and China

GEON Performance Solutions, experts in performance polymer compounding and process technology, announced today it reached a milestone in its cultural and sustainability journey. GEON started its partnership with Great Place To Work (GPTW) in 2021 to baseline its culture, gather insights from all associates and forward-steer strategies to create engagement and inclusion of its teams around the world. GEON established culture and people as a foundational pillar of its Vision 2025 and sustainability strategy.

This year was the second time GEON participated in the GPTW survey. The company achieved a major milestone towards its objective of being globally recognized as a GPTW company by 2025 by obtaining the prestigious certification in Mexico, Canada and China.

Great Place To Work is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue and increased innovation. Through the certification process, GPTW captures employee feedback and details about the programs and practices that qualify a company culture as being exceptional.

“Great Place To Work companies are evaluated against the very best in the world. To achieve this certification for three countries is an incredible honor and evidence that our journey to cultural excellence is on the right track,” said GEON Chief Executive Officer Tracy Garrison. “GEON is on an intentional journey to connect its core values to our culture and Environment, Sustainability and Governance (ESG) priorities. This cannot happen without the energy and commitment of our employees, and we are grateful for them and their commitment to building a great company.”

“We are passionate about building a company where our people and our culture are key differentiators, both in the workplace and the marketplace. Receiving this certification in three countries energizes our drive to continuously improve,” said Jerome Beguerie, Chief Human Resources Officer.

“GEON is committed to building an award-worthy culture. There is no magic trick to improve overnight, and it does not rest on only a few individuals to drive change — it takes us all to engage, to be willing to lean in, speak up, participate and help one another to get better. We are honored to be recognized this year, having made meaningful improvements amid a volatile environment as our teams continuously demonstrate and exemplify our core values to Win Together, Create Opportunities and Pay It Forward,” Beguerie said.
