Horizon Therapeutics plc Receives Top Workplace Awards in Chicago and San Francisco

Horizon Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: HZNP) today announced that it has been named one of the Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplaces 2021, ranking No. 5 out of 75 other midsize companies in the Chicago area. This is Horizon’s seventh time on the list.

“We are always honored to be named to the Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplaces list,” said Tim Walbert, chairman, president and chief executive officer, Horizon. “Because giving back to the communities where we live and work is foundational to our business, we are proud contributors to the Chicago area ecosystem, home to our U.S. headquarters, where we actively support innovators and our future diverse STEM leaders. We also take pride in providing our employees with state-of-the-art facilities in the Chicago area where solutions for patients come to life.”

The Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplaces list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by research partner Energage, LLC. The anonymous survey takes into consideration workplace culture, including alignment, execution and connection, among others.

Earlier this week, Horizon was also named an Elite winner on San Francisco Bay Area's Best and Brightest Companies to Work For list, ranking as the top company in the “Best of the Best Small Business” category. The Elite honor is presented by the National Association for Business Resources and recognizes companies who focus on the needs of employees while serving as leaders in the San Francisco Bay area community. This marks the second year the company has been placed on the list, and the first year as an Elite winner, since opening its South San Francisco office in November 2019.

“We are proud to be recognized as an Elite winner of San Francisco Bay Area’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For,” said Srini Ramanathan, Ph.D., senior vice president, research and development sciences and South San Francisco site head, Horizon. “This honor is significant because it highlights our strong commitment to our employee experience and continued growth in the region.”
