Washingtonian Magazine Names HireStrategy a "Great Place to Work"
RESTON, VA--(Marketwire - October 26, 2009) - The Washingtonian magazine has named
Reston-based staffing firm HireStrategy one of the "Great Places to Work"
in the Washington area, the third time the company has won the award.
Winners were chosen after a panel of editors and writers reviewed more than
200 companies and more than 13,000 employee surveys. The final
determinations relied heavily on the scores given by an organization's
employees. The feature is published every other year.
HireStrategy President & CEO Paul Villella said the award reflects the
company's employee-friendly culture: "We work hard to foster a culture
where people want to get out of bed and come to work every day, we have
excellent pay and benefits, do interesting work, deploy a collaborative,
open-door management style, we are flexible with workers schedules, and
provide career progression opportunities."
HireStrategy was one of six organizations highlighted as an "Always
Learning" company. HireStrategy offers employees regular training programs
covering relevant industry topics such as the Washington area job market;
labor market economics, and recruiter and account manager classes to
enhance performance and promotional opportunity.
Noting that HireStrategy is on the Inc. 5000 list of the nation's
fastest-growing firms, the magazine highlighted the company's "team-based,
open, entrepreneurial spirit. People work hard and play hard, enjoying
work and life together, one example, those that meet their annual goals win
a free winter trip."
HireStrategy was also recognized in the feature's "Treated Royally"
(employees are extremely happy with pay and benefits) and "Healthy Glow"
(very high employees marks for flexibility) categories.
