LENOVO NAMED A TOP 100 COMPANY TO WATCH FOR REMOTE JOBS IN 2019

Lenovo has been recognized in FlexJobs’ annual list of the Top 100 Companies to Watch for Remote Jobs in 2019 globally. Lenovo ranked #89 on the list.

This list is based on an analysis of more than 51,000 companies’ remote job posting histories in the FlexJobs database. FlexJobs used this information to identify the top 100 global companies with the highest number of remote job openings during 2018. To be considered, the jobs had to be remote-friendly, either allowing candidates to telecommute entirely or part of the time.

“In the US over 90 percent of Lenovo employees have access to flexible work arrangements and more than 90 percent of them take advantage of those benefits,” said Seth Smiley-Humphries, Director of Global Diversity for Lenovo. “Personally, I take advantage of flexible work arrangements every week by working from home or from a remote location. And I don’t think it impacts my careers, it connects me with others.”

Overall, the list represents more than 15 industries with companies headquartered across 11 different countries.

“As we saw in the latter part of 2018, we expect 2019 to continue to be a job seeker's market where companies will need to offer flexible/remote benefits to remain competitive and attract and retain the best talent,” said Sara Sutton, founder and CEO of FlexJobs. “As this list demonstrates, companies of all sizes and across all industries can adopt work-from-home and flexible work policies to meet the changing demands of the workforce,” Sutton concluded.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
