WOODSTOCK, Ga. – May 30, 2018 – PLAE was recently named one of Atlanta’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For 2018, recognized as an influential business that has a positive impact on its employees with its work environment.
“Since founding PLAE in 2009, I’ve been committed to making it a rewarding, fun place to work,” said Brett Waits, president of PLAE. “As we have grown, we have added perks while preserving our team vibe and unique culture, and this recognition in the competitive Atlanta market is definitely an honor.”
The Best and Brightest Companies to Work For program identifies large, medium and small businesses that are leading the way in human resource practices in multiple regions throughout the United States. Nominees are assessed via in-depth employee surveys and an HR questionnaire on communication, work-life balance, employee education, diversity, recognition, retention and more.
Winning companies receive a comprehensive assessment report based on their employee surveys, which also can be benchmarked against other winning businesses in cities nationwide to highlight how their practices compare with other leading organizations.
Atlanta’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For will be honored June 28 at a symposium and awards gala at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, which includes educational presentations and networking opportunities. Attendees can learn about best practices and collaborate with other Best and Brightest companies.
Ultimately, the Best and Brightest programs celebrate organizations that epitomize Better Business. Richer Lives. Stronger Communities. Through the Best and Brightest programs, the National Association for Business Resources provides specialized business services, education and resources for businesses throughout the country.
