A few weeks ago, we shared 6 Ways to Win Halloween in the Office, including throwing a party, encouraging costumes, and providing spooky treats. Many employers rose to our challenge of entering the first ever Glassdoor Halloween Photo Contest, too. Hundreds of companies used the Glassdoor app to post photos of their companies getting in the Halloween spirit. More than a thousand photos were entered featuring group costumes, sweet treats and spooky décor, but these companies went above and beyond in making Halloween a fun day for their employees. See who won this year’s Halloween Photo Contest, as well as some honorable mentions: Winner, Best Individual Costume: PeopleNet

How cute is this little office pup? At Kotis Design, this cute pup was dressed up as Syd the punky pig. Runners-Up, Best Pet Costume #1: Elementum

elementum

That’s one tired pup! Elementum’s Halloween pic of a sleeping dog dressed as a cop next to a donut was too good not to make our runners-up list for Best Pet Costume. #2: Kotis Design

kotis-design-2

Even though Kotis Design won the Best Pet Costume category, they did it again with this sleeping dog in a T-Rex costume. Being an office dog is tiring business! #3: Petplan

What’s cuter than a dog in a Pink Lady costume? Nothing is. Petplan stole our hearts with this puppy picture. Winner, Best Office Decorations: Venterra Realty

Here are four companies that made our Honorable Mentions list for everything from cool pumpkins to sweet treats. #1: LCE, Best Pumpkin Design
