March 18, 2025

---

PrideStaff Financial, an accounting and finance staffing division of The PrideStaff Companies, announced today that it has been named to ClearlyRated’s list of Best Staffing Firms for Women for a third consecutive year. This award highlights PrideStaff Financial’s dedication to providing professional advancement opportunities and a supportive environment that values women.

Fewer than .1% of staffing firms qualify for this elite designation, which is based on stringent criteria that include the following:
A firm must invite feedback from 100% of its internal staff on their overall experience within their organization.
Women must comprise at least 47% of the workforce, rate the firm highly, and be highly represented in leadership roles.

This year, PrideStaff Financial also earned its second consecutive Best of Staffing Client and Talent 15-Year Diamond Awards from ClearlyRated for providing superior service to their clients and candidates for at least 15 consecutive years, the only staffing firm specializing in accounting and financial staffing in the U.S. and Canada to do so. PrideStaff Financial also earned ClearlyRated’s Best of Staffing Employee 5-Year Diamond Award for providing an exceptional employee experience.

“We celebrate the amazing contributions from each of our team members, as we embrace the honor of being named to ClearlyRated’s Best Staffing Firms for Women list for a third consecutive year,” stated Ashli Fernandez, Vice President of PrideStaff Financial. “At every level, from our executives, our franchise-owning Strategic-Partners, to our managers throughout the organization, we are dedicated to nurturing a culture where every individual is recognized and rewarded for their achievements.”

Fernandez elaborated, “The fact that this award is based on anonymous, honest feedback from our female employees makes this distinction even more important to us. Women are at the heart of our company. They deliver an exceptional service experience for our valued clients and candidates. They are a vital part of Our Mission to ‘Consistently provide client experiences focused on what they value most’ every day.”

“I’m excited to unveil the companies recognized on the third annual Best Staffing Firms for Women list,” stated Baker Nanduru, CEO of ClearlyRated. “As we continue to celebrate Women’s History Month, these exceptional firms deserve applause for championing and empowering their female employees. Despite persistent challenges like pay disparity and limited advancement opportunities, these firms are at the forefront of fostering growth and elevating women in the workforce. Congratulations and heartfelt thanks to these outstanding organizations for their unwavering commitment to gender diversity and equality.”
