Sbarro has received a Great Place to Work certification. Great Place to Work is a global company that rates workplace culture, according to a press release.

The certification recognizes the top companies to work for worldwide based on feedback provided by employees on more than 60 elements of their job experience. Highest scoring categories for Sbarro included: employee pride in the brand, belief that their work makes a difference, employee alignment with and trust in the leadership team and diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

"Our certification as a Great Place to Work is a testament to our employees and their passion for our brand, our culture, our franchise partners and each other," Rohan Shearer, Sbarro's chief administrative officer and head of human resources, said in the press release. "We're honored to be one of the very few US based QSR brands to have obtained this recognition."

The core of Sbarro's culture is its "People Pledge," an employee engagement program that welcomes, develops, communicates with and cares for each member of the Sbarro family. The People Pledge has created a common language around employee connection and belonging that has led to Sbarro's industry leading management tenure.
