We’re pleased to share that Habanero has been recognized on the 2026 list of Best Workplaces in Professional Services from Great Place to Work.
Habanero exists to bring life to work and help people and organizations thrive. For 30 years now, we’ve put our heart into creating a purpose-driven, high-trust, people-first workplace culture because we know those are the characteristics shared by the best and most productive places to work. Being recognized as a best workplace reinforces the same values Habanero brings to its employees and clients every day.
Work has always been an inherently human thing that sits in a natural tension with the mechanization of tasks in the pursuit of efficiency. We are all living the latest wave of that tension now (AI, protectionist markets, etc.). At Habanero, we have always known that while exciting new technologies can give us gains, productivity and progress will always be tied to the humanistic side of the organization. It's our purpose to bring life to work, for ourselves and our clients, which is why now more than ever we are digging deep to help our clients understand this tension in the systems they use to work and cultures that drive their performance.
“We've been doubling down on understanding of how the dynamics of the current world have been impacting our clients’ business and, more importantly, the people in those organizations. The learnings have helped us tune our culture in exciting new ways.” says President, Steven Fitzgerald.
