HOUSTON, Oct. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EGL Eagle Global Logistics
(Nasdaq: EAGL) has been honored as one of Houston's top ten "Best Places to
Work," among Houston-based companies having more than 500 employees. In an
annual survey sponsored by the Houston Business Journal, an independent
research firm gathered comprehensive and anonymous information from
employees regarding the company's organization, management, career growth,
atmosphere and benefits, all of which play a role in making EGL a great
place for employment.
"We are extremely pleased to receive this honor because it is based
solely on our employees' opinions and their overall belief that EGL
embraces a culture of personal success," said Joe Bento, President and
Chief Marketing Officer for EGL Eagle Global Logistics. "At EGL, we
understand that our employees drive the success of the company and we want
to ensure they feel good about being a part of the EGL team."
According to Bento, in addition to the Houston Business Journal survey,
EGL has recently implemented internal employee surveys to gather their
thoughts and opinions on how to build a stronger company and a more
enjoyable place to work.
"We are committed to becoming an employer-of-choice and will continue
to solicit and apply the ideas of our employees to create the best work
environment in the global logistics industry -- everywhere we operate,"
said Bento.
This was EGL's first year to receive the "Best Places to Work"
recognition.
