Ultimately, our customers are the winners when our employees deliver an exceptional customer experience.”

The five recent “Best Place to Work” awards include the following:

The St. Petersburg Times and partner WorkplaceDynamics surveyed 24,505 workers from the Tampa Bay area and scored the responses using several factors. Only the top 70 workplaces made the cut, and T-Mobile won third place in the large company division.
