Social Discovery Group has been officially Certified™ by Great Place To Work® in Japan. This recognition is based entirely on employee feedback, highlighting SDG’s dedication to building a strong, trust-based environment that promotes professional growth and innovation.

The certification reflects the positive experiences of employees working on Kiseki, SDG’s matchmaking app in Japan. Team members emphasized the company’s supportive culture, opportunities for development, and commitment to work-life balance as key factors that make SDG a great place to work.

As a global technology company operating a portfolio of 60+ social discovery and online communication platforms, Social Discovery Group is fostering a flexible, innovative, and engaging workplace. With over 1,200 employees across five continents, the company embraces a digital nomad philosophy, allowing employees to work from anywhere in the world while maintaining a strong corporate culture through internal events, training programs, and team meetups.

“I believe that happier people achieve better results. That’s why we track eNPS (Employee Net Promoter Score), which measures how happy and engaged our people are. This survey, used by over 70% of Fortune 1000 companies, helps us make smarter decisions and implement changes based on real feedback. It provides our employees with a platform to share their thoughts and contribute to making the company even better. I think the focus on improving things is a big reason why we earned the Great Place to Work certification in Japan and the U.S. ”

said Svetlana Gorushkina, Global People Director at SDG.

Some of our standout results include:

🌟 80% of employees in Japan consider SDG a Great Place to Work

🌟 87% of our team is fully engaged, bringing their A-game and owning their roles!

🌟 100% agree that everyone in SDG Japan is treated fairly, regardless of age, race, gender, or sexual orientation


“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. “By successfully earning this recognition, Social Discovery Group stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing an exceptional workplace environment for its employees.”

According to Great Place To Work research, employees at Certified workplaces are 4.5 times more likely to have a great manager, 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and twice as likely to feel fairly compensated and have equal opportunities for career growth.

To our amazing team, thank you for your dedication and hard work in making SDG a Great Place to Work. Let’s continue to strive for excellence and create an even more promising future for our company and employees! 💛
