More Best Places to Work: Petzl America

Outdoor-gear manufacturer

By:

Location: Clearfield, Utah
Number of Employees: 51
Digs: In an industrial park roughly midway between Salt Lake City and Ogden, next door to soccer and baseball fields.
Culture: “About 60 percent of our staff are pretty serious climbers,” says marketing director John Evans. Employees are encouraged to make use of the office’s bouldering wall and take advantage of discounted passes to Snowbird and Snowbasin ski resorts. Every year, the company takes a weekend adventure to places like Zion.
