FORT MYERS, Fla. (July 30, 2014) – Myers, Brettholtz & Company, PA was recently named one of Florida’s Best Companies To Work For.

The annual Best Companies list appears in the August issue of Florida Trend magazine. One hundred companies are ranked in small, medium and large employer categories.

“Our Best Companies To Work For coverage always seeks to offer lessons for companies that aspire to create a Best-Company workplace,” says Mark Howard, executive editor. “This year we feature interviews with human-resource professionals at several of the Best Companies. We asked the HR professionals for their perspectives on what makes their company a great place to work. We also asked them about their challenges and their specific roles in creating a great workplace.”

“We are very proud to receive this accolade,” said Steve Brettholtz, principal of Myers, Brettholtz & Co. “We not only strive to provide our employees a positive work environment but also to give back to the community that has given so much to us during the past 35 years.”

The Best Companies To Work For In Florida program was created by Florida Trend and Best Companies Group and is endorsed by the HR Florida State Council.

To participate, companies or government entities had to employ at least 15 workers in Florida and have been in operation for at least one year. Companies that chose to participate underwent an evaluation of their workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. The process also included a survey to measure employee satisfaction. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the registration, survey and analysis, and determined the final rankings.

“The top companies seek high-energy employees who vigorously accept the organization’s core values,” says Florida Trend Publisher Andy Corty. “The companies that attract these great employees are the same companies that show growth even in a challenging business environment.  It’s our pleasure to recognize them and encourage others to build Florida’s competitive advantage.”

Since 1979, Myers, Brettholtz & Company, PA has been working with nonprofit organizations in Southwest Florida’s five-county region, helping them achieve their goals. The company serves clients across the nation by performing accounting and auditing, tax preparation, bookkeeping and consulting.
