Epoch, a leading employee experience platform, has introduced Communities, a new feature designed to help organizations efficiently manage Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) and culture groups. The feature provides Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) leaders with a centralized platform to streamline operations, track engagement, and measure the impact of cultural initiatives.
Managing ERGs can be complex, especially in hybrid and remote workplaces where event coordination, participation tracking, and visibility often require multiple platforms. Communities simplifies this process by integrating these functions into a single dashboard, offering real-time analytics through custom surveys and attendance tracking. By leveraging these insights, DEIB leaders can make data-driven decisions to enhance employee experiences.
Companies like Greenhouse see Communities as a transformative tool for their internal programs. “At Greenhouse, we’re committed to building a culture of belonging, and our Arbors (that’s how we call our Greenhouse ERGs) are a key part of that. We’re excited for Epoch Communities as a way to streamline our Arbors operations by centralizing event management, automating communications, and providing real-time analytics,” said Jamie Adasi, Director, People Experience & Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Allyship of Greenhouse Software. “With better structure and insights, we can scale our programs, measure impact more effectively, and empower our Arbor leaders. As a remote-first company, this will help us better support our employees, foster engagement, and create meaningful connections across teams.”

Epoch’s platform is already used by major companies like Salesforce, Workday, Reddit, and Asana, with reported increases in employee participation and event engagement. “Epoch’s Communities feature is a must-have tool for DEIB and culture leaders,” said Jade Choy, Co-founder and CEO of Epoch. “More importantly, this frees up ERG leads and DEI teams to spend less time on manual processes and focus more on fostering a positive workplace culture. With this launch, we’re staying true to our north star to ensure employee experiences are genuine and impactful to all.”
With this latest innovation, Epoch continues to empower organizations with tools that enhance workplace inclusivity, streamline operations, and drive meaningful engagement.
