TAMPA, FL, December 1 --Veredus Corporation ("Veredus"), a Tampa, FL-headquartered technical staffing company and privately held firm, was named one of Atlanta's "Best Places to Work" by the Atlanta Business Chronicle. Veredus was ranked fourth in the Small-Employer Category by the publication.
Each year, the Atlanta Business Chronicle, in partnership with Quantum Market Research, surveys businesses and organizations to find those that have discovered the secrets to being one of the area's best places to work. The award, which cuts across industry lines, recognizes leaders in employee relations and management.
Veredus Corporation's Managing Director, David Brown, accepted the award on the firm's behalf at a special event held at the Georgia Aquarium.
"To be recognized as an 'A+ Employer' is incredibly gratifying," Brown said. "Our business is one of the few where your success depends substantially on the person sitting across from you."
Veredus employees appreciate Brown's leadership style. Said one in a survey for the Best Places to work program, "Not only does Veredus foster growth for the overall company, but for each individual as well."
