PROVIDENCE – Providence Business News and Best Companies Group have selected the winners of the annual Best Places To Work in Rhode Island competition for 2009.
The 28 organizations – which range in size from large (150 or more employees) to medium (50 to 149 employees) to small (as few as 15 employees) – were judged on their responses to both an extensive management report and an employee survey. The resulting data were compiled by Best Companies, an independent research organization based in Harrisburg, Pa., which then chose the winners.
This is the fourth year that PBN has sponsored the Best Places To Work in Rhode Island program. The winners were honored at an awards dinner on Thursday, June 18 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel Providence-Warwick.
Eight companies have been included on the Best Places To Work list in each of the four years that PBN has sponsored the competition: Advanced Financial Services Inc. in Middletown; Cox Communications in West Warwick; Edward Jones in South Kingstown; Falvey Cargo Underwriting Ltd. in South Kingstown; Hinckley Allen & Snyder LLP in Providence; Kahn, Litwin, Renza & Co. Ltd. in Providence; Perspectives Corp. in North Kingstown; and Shawmut Design & Construction in Providence.
