bitHeads Named 2007 Employer of Distinction

Award based on employee opinion survey recognizes the best places to work.

Ottawa, Canada (PRWEB) November 7, 2007 -- bitHeads Inc., one of North America's largest and fastest growing software product development outsourcing companies, announces that it has been named a National Capital Region Employer of Distinction for 2007.

"The Employer of Distinction awards honour those organizations that recognize employees as their greatest asset," according to the award organizers. "These are organizations that work with imagination and conviction to create organizational value and business results through their policies and best practices in human resource management."

To determine the recipients of the Employer of Distinction award, an anonymous employee opinion survey was conducted on three key dimensions: senior leadership, immediate manager and engagement. A committee of volunteer HR experts from various Ottawa organizations used the survey scores and other criteria, such as open-ended comments, to make the final selection. Award recipients are profiled in the November issue of Ottawa HR Magazine.

"This award, coming on the heals of bitHeads being named one of the Top 100 Employers in Canada and being ranked on the global Software 500 list, is particularly gratifying since it is based on the opinions of our employees," states Scott Simpson, President & CEO of bitHeads. "Such a high level of employee satisfaction has allowed us to attract and retain exceptionally bright and dedicated people. The resulting organizational competence and efficiency has enabled us to grow rapidly in the face of intense outsourcing competition."
