GlobalSCAPE Named among Top 50 Companies in Survey of Best Places to Work

GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (NYSE Amex: GSB), a leading developer of secure information exchange solutions, today announced that it ranked among the top 50 workplaces in San Antonio for 2009 by the San Antonio Express-News. The full list and ranking was noted in the Express-News Special Edition Top Workplaces 2009 publication on October 11, 2009.

The 50 companies were selected on the basis of a comprehensive analysis conducted by Workplace Dynamics, LLC, in a survey to employees throughout San Antonio. Qualities measured include company leadership, compensation and training, workplace flexibility, and diversity.

"We’re excited to be recognized by our employees for building the company culture that we envisioned a year ago.” said Andrea Farmer, Director of Human Resources for GlobalSCAPE. "Being named to this list for the first time is very rewarding because it confirms that we are meeting our goal of becoming a world-class workplace. It’s also a good testament to our leadership, especially our president, Jim Morris, who just finished his first year at GlobalSCAPE.”

GlobalScape embarked on many new workplace initiatives over this year including new office space build-outs; employee recognition and performance review programs; and enhanced health care and employee stock option benefits, which ranked second on the list of what employees look for from employers. "Keeping happy and thriving employees is critical to having satisfied customers,” said Jim Morris. "We’ve worked hard to create an environment where employees feel a sense of ownership in their jobs and are rewarded for making a difference. This ownership and freedom has a direct impact on our business strength and overall customer success.”

This ranking also follows GlobalSCAPE’s recent recognition as a Leader in Gartner Group’s 2009 Magic Quadrant for Managed File Transfer (MFT). The company has also experienced record growth over the last five years with revenues increasing 220%.
