Crusoe Energy prioritized protecting its employees during the past two years.

And although Crusoe slowly integrated back to in-office work, the company is keeping a flexible schedule that lets employees work from home two days per week.

That flexibility, combined with other company policies, wins Crusoe high marks from its employees.

This is the first year for Crusoe Energy, founded in 2018, on the Top Workplaces list.

The company works to eliminate flaring of natural gas, reduce the cost of cloud computing and power bitcoin mining using a process that reduces carbon emissions.

Cully Cavness, president and co-founder of Crusoe Energy, says employees benefit when they can work together.

“The return to office work has helped to foster streamlined communication across departments,” he says.

Innovations for a better tomorrow

Continued innovation is essential for the company, Cavness says.

“The need for energy, computing, and progress will never stop growing, Crusoe exists to accelerate the energy transition,” he says.

“Crusoe helps traditional energy providers reduce their environmental impact while arming values-led researchers, scientists, engineers, and businesses with clean computing power that will drive our shared progress.”
