“We congratulate this year's winners for showing that diverse workplaces are good for all employees,” said Michael Bush, chief executive officer of Great Place to Work.

“Bottom line? Our research shows that the most inclusive workplaces enjoy significantly higher revenue growth than less-inclusive workplaces — evidence that these organizations are cultivating the full human potential of all their people,” Bush went on to say.

Edmunds has also been recognized as one of the Best Workplaces for Asian Americans, ranking No. 6 out of 10 companies.

These two honors come on the heels of a series of accolades that recognize Edmunds' unique work culture and office environment. This past October, the company was ranked as one of America's Best Small and Medium Workplaces by Fortune and Great Place to Work. Earlier in the year, Edmunds was named among the 2016 Best Places to Work in IT by IDG's Computerworld and Steinlauf was named a Glassdoor Highest Rated CEO.

This year also marked the seventh consecutive year that Edmunds has been recognized by the Los Angeles Business Journal as a Best Place to Work in Los Angeles.
