SGIS named one of central florida’s best places to work by orlando business journal

 

Orlando, FL (April 16, 2007) – SGIS has been named Central Florida’s “Best Place to Work” in the Small Business category by the Orlando Business Journal.  This award recognizes the company's achievements in creating a positive work environment that attracts and retains employees through a combination of employee satisfaction, working conditions and company culture.

 

“This award would not be possible without the thought and dedication of our CEO Hany Girgis and COO Vince Virga,” said Mark Moore, SGIS Managing Partner.  “From driving our business in directions that we did not know existed to hiring the people that have made us a success.”

 

“You can’t have the best place to work without having the best team,” added John Mahony, SGIS Managing Partner.  “Orlando truly has a devoted staff with principals that should not be taken lightly: honesty, integrity and loyalty have been shown by all every day.  Their work ethic is second to none.”

 

Companies were evaluated on the results of employee satisfaction surveys.  Employees answered questionnaires that addressed such factors as their pride in the company, company encouragement, support and recognition of achievement, and relationships with co-workers and supervisors.

 

SGIS CEO Hany Girgis was recently named Small Business Person of the Year by the Small Business Administration (SBA).  SGIS was awarded the 2006 Governor’s Entrepreneurship Award in Florida’s Mega Market, South Florida Business Journal's 2006 Technology Award in the Professional Services Category and was also ranked the 13th Fastest Growing New Company in America in 2006 on Entrepreneur Magazine and PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Hot 100 List.
