What three words best describe your staff? Smart, passionate, driven.
What employee benefit is the most popular among staff members? Flexibility. We provide a number of opportunities (telecommuting, summer-flex, take-the-summer-off program, compressed workweek, etc.), which promotes a healthy work-life balance for our people.
What won’t you tolerate in the workplace? Mediocrity. We are a firm that is committed to excellence, so we can consistently provide the best professional services to our clients.
How do you encourage employee engagement? We firmly believe that employee engagement is best optimized by creating an environment where our people truly understand that our goal is to have our people perform at a high level from a desire to excel, not a fear of failure. We tell our people it is OK to make mistakes as long as they learn from those mistakes.
