The Plain Dealer Names Park Place Technologies a Winner of the Northeast Ohio 2017 Top Workplaces Award
June 19, 2017
CLEVELAND, June 19th, 2017–Park Place Technologies has been awarded a 2017 Top Workplaces honor by The Plain Dealer. The Top Workplaces lists are based solely on the results of an employee feedback survey administered by WorkplaceDynamics, LLC., a leading research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement. Several aspects of workplace culture were measured, including Alignment, Execution, and Connection, just to name a few.
“The Top Workplaces award is not a popularity contest. And oftentimes, people assume it’s all about fancy perks and benefits,” says Doug Claffey, CEO of WorkplaceDynamics. “But to be a Top Workplace, organizations must meet our strict standards for organizational health. And who better to ask about work life than the people who live the culture every day—the employees. Time and time again, our research has proven that what’s most important to them is a strong belief in where the organization is headed, how it’s going to get there, and the feeling that everyone is in it together. Claffey adds, “Without this sense of connection, an organization doesn’t have a shot at being named a Top Workplace.”
Since 1991, Park Place Technologies is a leader in its market of post-warranty data center hardware maintenance. The company has experienced a 30% growth rate year over year, making it one of the fastest growing technology companies in Northeast Ohio. “It is our employees who make Park Place such a great place to work,” says Executive Vice President of Human Resources, Judy Collister. “Being recognized as a Top Workplace for three straight years now means we can attract and retain the best and brightest talent, and continue to be a leader in our industry.”
