Blue Ribbon Goes to Redfish Technology Inc. in the 2013 'Best Places to Work'

MILPITAS, CA, April 25, 2013 (Press-News.org) Redfish Technology was awarded the blue ribbon in 'Best Places to Work in Idaho' at the awards banquet held by the Idaho Business Review, the state's preeminent business publication.

"We're thrilled to take first place in 'Idaho's Best Places Work'," says Rob Reeves President and CEO of Redfish Technology. "Cultivating a culture in which we are healthy and thrive personally, as well as contribute to the local community is among our firm's greatest achievements. We are designed to attract, motivate and retain extraordinary people. This culture is surely one of the main reasons that we, and our clients, are so successful today."

The recognition was given to the top ten businesses in each of three categories. Redfish Technology, a leading nationwide technology recruiting company, competed in the category of companies with 10-19 employees.

The Idaho's Best Places to Work is awarded based on employee feedback and achieving excellence in company best practices in employee attraction and retention. Companies competed in three size categories and were measured by the employees in terms of Compensation and Benefits, Employee Growth and Development, Work-Life Balance, Workplace Environment, and Company Management.
