The Whitaker Companies Named Best Places to Work by The Houston Business Journal

Houston, TX – November 2013 – The Whitaker Companies has been selected as one of The Houston Business Journal’s Best Places to Work in Houston, Texas.

The Houston Business Journal cited Whitaker’s outstanding benefit program, flexible scheduling, awards and recognition programs and its family environment all as selection criteria that pushed Whitaker to the top.

“We’re very proud to win this award,” said Bruce Whitaker, President of The Whitaker Companies. ”How our employees feel about where we’re going and how we’re getting there as a corporation is the key to our success. We couldn’t make it without the partnership and buy in we get from all of them.”

For more than a decade, the Houston Business Journal has recognized the Best Places to Work in Houston. The rankings are based on the scores from a month-long employee engagement audit conducted by third-party expert Quantum Workplace. Employees evaluated their companies in areas such as goals and leadership, communication and support, advancement opportunity and skill development, recognition and compensation, tolerance and flexibility and embracing innovation and ideas.
