Phoenix International Chosen as One of the Best Places to Work
Wood Dale, Illinois – November 15, 2010 – Phoenix International Freight Services, Limited is pleased to announce it has been selected as a “Top Chicago Workplace 2010” by The Chicago Tribune; a major daily newspaper based in Chicago, Illinois.
“Getting Phoenix recognized as a great company to work for has been a personal objective of mine for about 20 years. This award is very important to me, especially since it is being given in the Chicago market where I was born and raised, and where our whole company has its roots,” said executive chairman, Bill McInerney. McInerney founded the company in 1979, which has its world headquarters in Wood Dale, Illinois.
The evaluation for the Top Workplaces program is based upon feedback from employee surveys. Phoenix employees in the Chicago area made this honor possible by submitting positive and empowering comments; reporting the family feel and atmosphere, stability and benefits program as top reasons for why they enjoy working for the company.
“Being chosen as a best company to work for can be a one time event, or something that we can use as a standard that we hold ourselves to; we want to live up to the billing on a daily basis. This is an opportunity for us raise our standards across the USA network, and ultimately in all our locations around the world,” explains McInerney.
Phoenix International is the largest privately-owned international freight forwarder, NVOCC and Customs broker headquartered in North America, with more than 2000 employees in 75 global offices and sales exceeding $751 Million. In addition to being named one of the Top Workplaces, Phoenix’s accolades also include rankings in fastest growing, healthiest, largest privately-owned and top logistics company lists.
