Robert Hohman, Glassdoor co-founder and CEO, said, “Winning a Glassdoor Top CEO award is a true acknowledgement of exceptional leadership, as it reflects the opinions of the employees who work with a chief executive every day.  I congratulate all of this year’s winners on this significant achievement.  It can be a real recruiting advantage to have a top-rated CEO at the helm of a company who has strong support from his or her employees.  The best CEOs are inspiring, trustworthy, innovative and can be great motivators for people to bring their best selves to work.”
