Cirrus Logic Inc. (Nasdaq: CRUS), an award-winning developer of
analog and digital-signal processing integrated circuits for audio
and energy applications, was recently named as one of the Best
Companies to Work for in Texas 2009. The awards program was created
in 2006 and is a project of Texas Monthly magazine, the Texas
Association of Business (TAB), the Texas State Council of the
Society for Human Resource Management (TSC-SHRM) and Best Companies
Group. �We�ve worked very hard to make Cirrus Logic a unique and
exemplary company,� said Jason Rhode, who was named Cirrus Logic
president and chief executive officer in May, 2007. �We�re very
excited to be recognized for our great corporate culture, excellent
benefits, and having great employees that like to win and have
fun.� While the company�s benefits are unique and top-notch, Cirrus
Logic�s rising status as a recognized top employer reflects the
company�s progress toward its business objectives despite a
difficult global economy. �We have a vision to be the first choice
for signal processing components for our customers,� Rhode said.
�Our employees have embraced our vision and we�re pursuing our
goals in areas like audio and energy where we have passion and the
will to win.� Among Cirrus Logic�s noteworthy cultural benefits are
company-sponsored celebrations, regular on-site chair massages, a
monthly concert series on its outdoor terrace overlooking the
Austin skyline, annual company children�s holiday party with gifts
from Santa Claus, and its annual picnic at Schlitterbahn Water
Park. Along with strong benefits and employee recognition programs,
Cirrus Logic offers an on-site fitness center and game room, and
Rhode fosters an open-door policy for employees, who congregate
outside his office for a friendly work-break competition of Guitar
Hero�. It is these types of company programs that have earned
Cirrus Logic a spot for its first time on the annual list. This
statewide survey and awards program was designed to identify,
recognize and honor the best places of employment in Texas,
benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and businesses. The
Best Companies to Work for in Texas 2009 list is made up of 100
companies. Cirrus Logic will soon be celebrating its 25-year
anniversary and makes its global headquarters in Austin. The
company employs 470 people worldwide, 300 in Texas. Cirrus Logic
will be recognized and honored at the Best Companies to Work for in
Texas awards ceremony on Wednesday, Jan. 28, 2009 at the Texas
Association of Business 2009 Annual Conference. The final rankings
will be announced at the luncheon. For more information on the Best
