LORD MicroStrain Named One of “Best Places to Work in Vermont” for Third Straight Year
(Cary, N.C. – March 27, 2015) – LORD MicroStrain® Sensing Systems – a global leader in developing embedded sensing systems for aerospace and industrial markets – has been named one of the “Best Places to Work in Vermont” in 2015, ranking #2 in the statewide “Large Company” category. This marks the third straight year LORD MicroStrain earned the honor.
The annual list of the Best Places to Work in Vermont was created by Vermont Business Magazine, the Vermont Chamber of Commerce, the Vermont Department of Economic Development, the Vermont Department of Labor, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) - Vermont State Council and Best Companies Group.
“We are thrilled to once again receive recognition as one of the best places to work in Vermont,” said Andy Winzenz, LORD MicroStrain Director - Global New Ventures. “Since this is largely an employee-driven recognition, it’s particularly rewarding to know our team holds their workplace and colleagues in such high regard.”
Companies from across the state entered the two-part survey process to determine the Best Places to Work in Vermont. The first part (25% of total score) consists of outside evaluation of each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. The second part (75%) consists of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final rankings. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process in Vermont and also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final rankings.
