We’re honored to share that Praetorian has once again been named to Inc. Magazine’s Best Workplaces — marking our fourth consecutive year on the list. This recognition is more than a badge; it’s a reflection of the culture we’ve built together — one rooted in transparency, trust, and purpose.
Since first receiving this honor in 2022, we’ve never treated it as a given. Instead, we’ve used it as a barometer to stay honest about what we’re doing well — and where we can still grow. In 2025, we’re proud to stand alongside top medium-large companies, not just because of our results, but because of what our team had to say.
What Makes 2025 Different
This year, Praetorians shared candid reflections on what it’s like to work here — and the feedback spoke volumes. The overwhelming majority described feeling deeply engaged, aligned, and driven. Just as notably, not a single respondent reported being disengaged — a rare distinction and one we take seriously.
These results placed us among the top performers in our category. But we don’t measure success by scores — we measure it by impact and authenticity.
In Their Words
We believe the truest measure of culture comes from within. When asked open-ended questions, our team described Praetorian as:
“One of the few places I’ve worked where I can call the senior team ‘leadership’ and not ‘management.’ They lead by example, share where we stand, and welcome feedback — even the hard stuff.”
“A tight ship with everyone rowing in the same direction. Transparency, professionalism, and relentless client focus are baked into how we operate.”
“A place where I’ve grown exponentially through coaching and collaboration, and where the ‘we’ mentality isn’t a slogan — it’s how we work.”
And one quote captured the spirit of our culture best:
“I’m really glad to work at a place that talks openly about compensation and wants to do right by engineers. That willingness to listen and evolve — that’s a huge differentiator between Praetorian and most other tech companies.”
What “Engaging” Really Means
Each year, Inc. asks teams to distill their workplace into a single word. In 2025, our team’s top response was: Engaging.
It’s simple. But powerful. At Praetorian, engaging means more than being busy or productive — it means being heard, challenged, supported, and connected to a mission that matters: preventing breaches before they occur.
Built on Purpose, Driven by Principles
This award isn’t about perks. It’s about principles. At Praetorian, we’ve built a culture where transparency is expected, trust is earned, and progress is shared. Where we celebrate together, struggle together, and row in the same direction. That’s how we make craters — together.
To every Praetorian: thank you. This is yours.
To those thinking about joining us: we’d love to meet you.
