BackPocket Agency Named One of America’s Most Loved Companies to Work For

BackPocket Agency, a Chicago-based independent content marketing agency, was named one of America’s Most Loved Companies to Work For by the Maya Culture Awards.

CHICAGO, IL, UNITED STATES, February 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- BackPocket Agency, a Chicago-based independent content marketing agency, was named one of America’s Most Loved Companies to Work For by the Maya Culture Awards, a national program honoring organizations redefining workplace culture.

BackPocket Agency delivers content strategy, communications, creative, web development, digital marketing, event campaigns, and analytics—helping top associations, non-profits, healthcare, and B2B organizations move faster, work smarter, and scale impact. The agency was built on a simple belief: Great marketing starts with trust—trust in people, in process, and in purpose.

“We knew there had to be a better way to build an agency—one that didn’t burn out people to get great results,” said Rene Ryan, co-founder of BackPocket Agency. “This recognition affirms that you don’t have to choose between exceptional work and a healthy, human-first workplace.”

The Maya Culture Awards evaluated thousands of companies and surveyed more than 20,000 employees using anonymous sentiment analysis and research-backed cultural benchmarks. BackPocket stood out for intentionally addressing burnout and psychological safety—persistent challenges in agency environments—while continuing to deliver high-impact, award-winning marketing work.

“Too often, agency culture is treated as a perk instead of a strategy,” said Joe Stella, co-founder of BackPocket Agency. “We believe culture is the strategy. When people feel trusted and supported, clients get better thinking, stronger execution, and real partnership—not just deliverables.”
