DataBank Named Best Workplace in Texas for 2026

Texas consistently ranks among the best places to work, and DataBank has just carved its name into this prestigious list. Announced on June 8, 2026, this leading provider of enterprise-class colocation, interconnection, and managed services has secured the impressive No. 5 spot on the Great Place to Work and Fortune Media rankings for Best Workplaces in Texas.

This recognition marks a significant milestone for DataBank, as it is their inaugural appearance on this influential list. Competing against 75 honorees, DataBank not only met but exceeded rigorous benchmarks, cementing its status among the top workplaces in the state.

To establish the rankings for the Fortune Best Workplaces in Texas™ list, Great Place to Work conducted an extensive survey targeting nearly 100,000 employees from eligible companies. The evaluation criteria revolved around the effectiveness of creating positive workplace experiences and fostering trust among leaders, colleagues, and the organization overall.

Raul K. Martynek, CEO of DataBank, expressed pride in this achievement, stating, “Texas is home to our headquarters, a significant part of our workforce, and some of our most important customer relationships. This recognition belongs to our employee-owners who bring that commitment to work every day.”

The competition for the Best Workplaces in Texas recognition is exceptionally rigorous. Honorees are evaluated based on their ability to create positive outcomes and experiences for every employee, regardless of position within the organization. For a company to qualify for this esteemed list, it must be Great Place to Work Certified™, hold at least 10 employees in the U.S., and have its headquarters situated in Texas.

Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work, congratulated the winners, highlighting the advantages that come with prioritizing people in a business setting. He noted, “By focusing on people, these companies are more resilient and effective in a business environment that demands speed, innovation, and agility.”

DataBank's recent accolade is just one of many recognition for the organization in 2026. The company has also been recognized with the Inc. Best Workplaces title, and achieved Great Place To Work® Certification earlier this year. In addition, they received a Gold Award from the 2026 TITAN Business Awards for their Employee Ownership Program, which grants all approximately 1,000 full-time employees an equity stake in the company’s future.
