IMG_2086 (2)HUNTSVILLE, AL – June 2016 – Intuitive Research and Technology Corporation (INTUITIVE) is excited to announce it was recognized by Great Place to Work and Fortune Magazine as the #1 Best Workplace to Retire From in the nation. INTUITIVE earned their place on the list based on their employees’ responses to anonymous survey questions relevant to employees approaching retirement, as well as the programs and benefits that help our people prepare for life after they leave the workforce. In addition, to find companies that are convincing their talented legions to stay, Fortune asked Great Place to Work to review the 401(k) plans, health insurance, phased retirement offerings, and internal promotion rates at more than 600employers.

INTUITIVE’s CEO, Rey Almodóvar, stated, “At INTUITIVE we recognize that the experience of our long-time colleagues is essential to our success. These are the employees who are preparing our industry for the next generation of leadership. They deserve to be rewarded with the resources needed for a positive transition out of the workforce and comfortable retirement.”

The Best Workplaces to Retire From list is comprised of organizations where employees over 52 say they want to stay for a long time and that they admire the company for their fairness. The ranking took into account survey results from employees 52 and older relating to pay and fair treatment regardless of employees’ age. Measures of internal promotion rates and resources available to colleagues preparing to retire were also considered. To view the full list visit: fortune.com/best-workplaces-for-retirement

Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work®. “The Best Workplaces to Retire From value long-time employees, seeking out their knowledge and rewarding them fairly for their service.
