The Washington Technology Industry Association, the largest statewide association of technology companies, IT departments and individual technology professionals in North America, was named one of the Puget Sound region's "Best Places to Work" in the June issue of Seattle Business Monthly magazine.
The association, which represents more than 1,000 technology companies and their more than 100,000 employees, was one of seven organizations recognized by the magazine in the non-profit / government category.
"We are honored and very pleased to be recognized as one of the best places to work in the Seattle market," said Ken Myer, president and CEO of the Washington Technology Industry Association. "But the credit goes to the people who work here, many of whom are new to the organization. They wanted to build a place where people work very hard but not at the expense of having fun and living a balanced life."
The article cited the Washington Technology Industry Association as having cool perks such as comp time, flexible scheduling and telecommuting.
Other organizations named in the non-profit / government category included King County, United Way of King County, Planned Parenthood of Western Washington, Overlake Christian School, Hopelink and People to People.
