Ann Arbor, MI, Nov. 22, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Detroit Free Press has announced the winners of its 2013 Top Workplaces awards, an annual competition in which Michigan employees rate the businesses for which they work. Over 50,000 workers at 216 companies and organizations shared their feedback this year, and Ann Arbor-based Enlighten is honored to be named one of the Top Workplaces in Michigan.
The Free Press appointed winners in large, midsize and small company categories. Enlighten ranked number 40 on the Small Top Workplace Winners list, and was the only Information Technology company to be included. The employee survey was conducted by WorkplaceDynamics, a research firm that partners with 40 different regional news publications nationwide in order to identify "the top companies to work for in America."
"The atmosphere is wonderful, my colleagues are friendly, I love what I do, and Enlighten takes very good care of their employees," said one worker by way of the anonymous survey. Another wrote, "The boss strongly supports having fun while doing great work."
"Part of what makes Enlighten a great place to work is the culture," says Steve Glauberman, founder and CEO of Enlighten. "Our credo has always been, 'Do good, be good, have fun,' and I think this resonates with our employees. There's a sense of community at Enlighten that extends from collaboration on client projects to lasting friendships. Our open floor plan, entrepreneurial spirit, and no-ego sensibility are points of pride, and make for a tremendous overall work environment."
