Hunt Valley, Maryland — RDA is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the 4th year in a row. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at RDA. This year, 96% of employees said it’s a great place To Work – 39 points higher than the average U.S. company.
Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention, and increased innovation.
"Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that RDA stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."
"This recognition means a lot—not just because it reflects the culture we’ve worked hard to build, but because it comes directly from our team. In a world where talent has more options than ever, our people continue to choose RDA. They choose a company where values guide every decision, where collaboration outweighs ego, and where growth is measured by the development of our people and the lasting impact we make for our clients." - Matt Forsyth, CEO at RDA
What Makes RDA’s Employee Culture Great?
Our employees often say they choose RDA not just for the work we do, but for the way we work together—and we think that’s what truly makes our culture stand out.
At RDA, success isn’t just something we deliver—it’s something we live. Our Culture of Success is built on core values that inspire us to innovate, collaborate, and grow together. From bold ideas to collective victories, our team is driven by a shared vision of triumph. Innovation, transparency, authenticity, collaboration, and precision are what we strive for every day.
We believe that a strong culture starts with strong communication. That's why we introduced the Real Colors® program in 2024 to help our teams better understand themselves and each other.
Real Colors empowers individuals to identify their unique communication styles and appreciate how others naturally approach collaboration, decision-making, and feedback. By investing in tools like Real Colors, we’re reinforcing our commitment to empathy, inclusion, and growth.
It’s one of the many ways we create an environment where people feel seen, supported, and set up to succeed. It also helps employees understand the potential communication preferences of those around them, whether that is coworkers, clients, partners, or leadership teams. This ensures more effective interactions and reduces misunderstandings, which is extremely important in a fast-paced workforce.
Over the last year, it has helped our team understand the different communication and working styles of their peers, creating a more inclusive and open-minded environment by making conversations clearer, teamwork smoother, and ultimately relationships stronger. Find out more about the program in our Real Colors blog.
“We have a culture focused on making our clients successful for the long term. This provides me with the opportunities to do my best work and really make a difference.” - Todd Vriesema, Senior Digital Strategist at RDA
