About COG
In September 2025, COG earned its first-ever Great Place To Work certification.
Great Place To Work highlights organizations with positive, engaging workplace cultures. It is unique because it is the only recognition based entirely on what employees report about their level of trust in the organization and the consistency of the employee experience. To achieve the certification, COG had to meet specific, globally recognized benchmarks.
