“Our people are our family, and this recognition reaffirms our belief that when we take care of each other, success follows naturally,” shared FLI President and CEO Tristan Las Marias. “We are grateful to PDI and Statista for the acknowledgement but more than that, we are grateful to our employees who make FLI a company a place of purpose and progress.”
FLI's commitment to enrich and expand employee potentials is evidenced by initiatives that enhance professional development, leadership skills, and activities that deepen their heart for the community. The company partners with the country's top educational institutions to provide FLI leaders with certificate programs, short courses, and seminars that are essential to our employees' career growth.

Additionally, eligible employees participated through the Philippine Daily Inquirer’s website, with over 6,000 individuals submitting responses. This rigorous process ensures a comprehensive reflection of employees' opinions regarding their workplaces.
As Filinvest Land moves forward, it remains inspired to continue building a workplace where everyone can thrive, succeed, and reach their full potential. Guided by the principle that people are the heart of the company, FLI is committed to creating an environment where each employee feels empowered and valued, knowing that their dedication brings every success to life and fuels the company’s ongoing growth and achievements.
