Jackpocket Awarded 2022 Best Places To Work by Built In

NEW YORK, Jan. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Built In today announced that Jackpocket, the first third-party app in the U.S. to provide a secure way to order official state lottery tickets, was honored in its 2022 Best Places To Work Awards. Specifically, Jackpocket earned a place on the Best Places to Work and Best Midsize Companies to Work For lists in New York City. The annual awards program includes companies of all sizes, from startups to those in the enterprise, and honors both remote-first employers as well as companies in the eight largest tech markets across the U.S.

"Jackpocket has grown immensely over the last year and we've truly doubled-down on making sure our culture and benefits would not only fully support our team, but also set an example for others," says Peter Sullivan, founder and CEO of Jackpocket. "We're honored to be recognized for the company culture we've worked hard to build — an egoless, collaborative atmosphere where people can create and grow. Our amazing team is what makes Jackpocket the leading digital lottery app in the U.S. We couldn't do it without them."

After a year full of milestones, including a $120M Series D funding round, a partnership with convenience store brand Circle K, being named the official lottery courier of the New York Jets, and announcing the largest mobile gaming win in U.S. history, Jackpocket will continue expanding its impact on the industry in 2022 while prioritizing its company culture and team's wellbeing.

Built In determines the winners of Best Places to Work based on an algorithm, using company data about compensation, benefits and companywide programming. To reflect the benefits candidates are searching for more frequently on Built In, the program also weighs criteria like remote and flexible work opportunities, programs for DEI and other people-first cultural offerings. 

"It is my honor to extend congratulations to the 2022 Best Places to Work winners," says Sheridan Orr, Chief Marketing Officer of Built In. "This year saw a record number of entrants — and the past two years fundamentally changed what tech professionals want from work. These honorees have risen to the challenge, evolving to deliver employee experiences that provide the meaning and purpose today's tech professionals seek."

Jackpocket recently opened a second headquarters in Santa Barbara. For a list of career opportunities nationwide, visit jackpocket.com/careers.
