WHY WE THINK WE'RE A GREAT PLACE TO WORK
This is a very subjective question. This is a question I ask of my employees each year, and this year I decided to enter this contest as a result of their answers. When I asked this year I got answers such as "This place is like family"; "I've never felt so valued as an employee before"; "The culture here is amazing"; "I feel that my opinions count here"; and "I don't see myself ever working anywhere else." These are what I feel are qualities of a "Best Place to Work," and they describe my company to a tee.

WHY WE THINK WE'RE A GREAT PLACE TO WORK
It all starts with a vision and purpose. We communicate a clear vision to our team of who we want to be and how we will get there. We revisit that vision annually and assess if our focus is correctly aligned on how to get there. If adjustments are needed, we make them, to either our vision, our focus, or both. This gives us a clear sense of purpose. The belief that there is a larger common goal, to be part of a larger purpose, and everyone is committed to it.
Culture is also paramount. We’ve done away with corporate-style annual reviews, so we provide informal feedback to our employees throughout every project. We set financial metrics predicated on the overall profitability of the company, not on revenue. We invest back into the company. We invest heavily in marketing, tradeshows, user conferences, additional training, and our annual company meeting. We run a fully transparent company. Our team is aware of the financial status & financial health of the company, and they have full access to the leadership team at all times. We compensate our team much higher than the industry average, and we’ve deployed world-class benefits across the board.
