HR Tech Company Ascentis Accelerates New Direction with Change in Headquarters from Silicon Valley to MinnesotaThere's a new mid-market Human Capital Management (HCM) technology provider in town. Historically headquartered in San Mateo, California, the transition in location for the Ascentis headquarters was inspired by the new line-up of executives, who believe that great technology talent also exists here in the Midwest. Staying true to the vision of a high growth culture, Ascentis leadership looks to build out a fast paced, growing workforce to effectively tackle the underserved HCM needs of mid-sized organizations.
A timeline towards rapid growth A more visible strategy, was moving the Ascentis headquarters from California to Minnesota. The executive team strived for transparency and visibility across the organization to enable the growth goals of the organization, so shifting most of the core team to sit out of a central office was equal parts a culture and strategic business decision.
High growth plan: New HQ paves the way for increased mmentum This sentiment rings true as a cornerstone for Ascentis. In May, Ascentis hosted their annual user-conference where over 200 clients engaged in product training and thought leadership breakout sessions. During the event, Provost stated, "The core mission of Ascentis is to provide the tools that help our clients better manage the most critical of all assets - the people. We understand the importance of the software, but what sets us apart is the energy, creativity, innovation and focus we place on servicing our clients. There's whitespace in this industry regarding service, and we are well-positioned to continue growing based on that."
Forward progress ignites in fresh space designed for collaboration Motorized standing desks, a chic boardroom accessible to all employees, and a unique variety of conference rooms all lovingly named after Minnesota's most popular lakes are just a few assets that make the new Ascentis HQ a true stand-out for prospective new hires. Employees feel at home with the breakroom at the center of it all, providing options of booths, risers, high tops and couch seating. And on Friday afternoons, there's always time for a quick game of ping-pong. "Although we are a technology enabling business, it's our people that make all the difference for our clients. We are excited to be in a new headquarters space that fosters great communication, collaboration and energy. Serving the HR community, we have a strong appreciation for how important a great work environment is to create engaged employees, happy clients and a growing business," said Brian Provost.
