Recognition highlights the firm’s continued commitment to its people, workplace culture, and employee experience

CHICAGO, Nov. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SDI Presence LLC (SDI), a leading IT consultancy and managed services provider, has been named one of the Chicago Tribune’s Top Workplaces for 2026, marking the company’s ninth consecutive year receiving the recognition. The honor coincides with SDI’s 30th anniversary, celebrating three decades of growth and a workplace culture that continues to evolve alongside its employees.

The annual Top Workplaces program recognizes organizations based on employee feedback about their workplace experiences, including leadership, engagement, and organizational culture. SDI’s continued recognition reflects its focus on creating an environment where employees feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.

“Thirty years in business and nine consecutive years as a Top Workplace are milestones we’re incredibly proud of, and both are a reflection of our people,” said Hardik Bhatt, CEO of SDI Presence. “By embracing flexibility, fostering trust, and creating opportunities for growth, we’re building a workplace where people can thrive while continuing to deliver exceptional service to our clients.”

Founded in Chicago in 1996 by David Gupta, SDI has grown into a national IT consultancy and managed services provider serving public and private sector organizations. Throughout its growth, the company has remained committed to adapting its workplace practices to support the evolving needs of its workforce.

A key part of that approach is flexibility. Through remote and hybrid work arrangements where appropriate, flexible scheduling, and an emphasis on work-life balance, SDI recognizes that supporting employees’ individual needs contributes to a more engaged and productive workforce. These practices are grounded in trust, accountability, and a shared commitment to delivering strong results for clients.

Beyond flexibility, SDI emphasizes collaboration, professional development, and opportunities for employees to expand their skills and advance their careers. The company’s commitment to community impact, particularly through Xchange Chicago, also gives employees an opportunity to be part of something bigger than their day-to-day work. Together, these priorities help foster a workplace where employees can build meaningful, long-term careers while contributing to the company’s continued success.

The 2026 recognition extends SDI’s consecutive Chicago Tribune Top Workplaces honors dating back to 2018, reinforcing the role its employees have played in shaping the company’s first 30 years and its future.
