We are pleased to improve our score this year in the Best Tech Workplaces survey and plan to compete again in 2012.  Don’t think we will rest on our laurels.  We already have a number of initiatives underway to further engage our people so they love us and our clients even more.  To our IT solution provider friends and peers worldwide, we say, ‘Come and try to catch us in the 2012 Best Tech Workplaces survey!  The more companies participating, the better."

Second place is Data Network Group, a computer consulting firm that provides outsourced IT solutions to businesses along the Front Range of Colorado. “We were very excited to be recognized as a Best Tech Workplace again this year,” said Michael Perkins, President of Data Network Group. “The computer support industry can be very stressful.  Two of the reasons we consistently score so high and continue to hire great people are our fun, relaxed atmosphere, and that we provide better benefits than many other firms.  Our employees are and will always be our most important asset.

Morris Stemp of Stemp Systems Group is very pleased with the growth in their company culture.  “Our selection as a Best Tech Workplace shows that our staff appreciates how they benefit from our core values which encourage them to grow, collaborate, have a passion for challenge, be genius, and even to be a bit W@CKi.  This survey confirms that our employees value our long term relationships with our clients as well as the efforts that we make to motivate and reward them, and that the members of our staff really do enjoy working for Stemp!”
