Mixbook, the #1 rated photo book brand offering up the largest selection of designs and unrivaled creative freedom, today announced it’s been ranked #1 in Built In’s prestigious Best Places to Work Start Up category list for 2023.

The annual awards program includes companies of all sizes, from startups to enterprise, and honors both remote-first employers as well as companies in the largest tech markets across the U.S.

“We’re honored to be included as a best place to work by Built In, recognizing our dedication to Mixbook’s people-first culture that’s deeply rooted in care,” said Andrew Laffoon, CEO and co-founder at Mixbook. “Our leadership team is committed to prioritizing our organizational health and fostering an inclusive workplace that celebrates creativity, innovation, and clear and honest communication. The end result is a team of amazing peers who inspire and challenge each other to be their best every day.”

Built In determines winners for Best Places to Work based on an algorithm, using company data about compensation, total rewards and companywide programming. To reflect the benefits candidates are searching for frequently on Built In, the program also weighs criteria like remote and flexible work opportunities, programs for inclusion, and other people-first cultural offerings.

As a company, Mixbook bases much of its operations on the principles developed by Patrick Lencioni’s The Advantage Model which aims to create healthier organizations by driving clarity, alignment and collective success. In light of this, Mixbook looks to fully understand employees needs before making decisions around the Total Rewards program. Currently, Mixbook offers a wide variety of perks and benefits including a minimum time off policy, annual learning and development stipends, health and wellness reimbursement, interior design and ergonomic consultations, and much more. Additionally, as a remote-first organization, teams have access to a network of global coworking spaces for added flexibility and access for those who prefer to work out of the home.

“This win is a testament to the hard work we’ve all done to instill our company vision and values – from the top with our entire Executive Team down to what every employee brings to work each day,” said Kim Colucci, director of culture and growth at Mixbook. “We’re a scrappy team with a big mission and by fostering a culture that encourages feedback, communication and ideas, we can continuously raise the bar for how we show up for each other and our customers.”
