Interactive Data Corporation (NYSE: IDC), a leading provider of
financial market data, analytics and related services, today
announced that it has been named one of the Top Places to Work in
Massachusetts in the debut of an employee-based survey initiative
sponsored by The Boston Globe. Produced by the same team that
compiles the 21-year-old Globe 100 report of the best-performing
public companies in Massachusetts, the Top Places to Work
recognizes the most dynamic companies in the state based on
employee opinions about company leadership, compensation and
training, diversity/inclusion, career development, family-friendly
flexibility, and values and ethics. Private companies and
nonprofits as well as publicly-held businesses were included in the
analysis. The rankings in the Globe 100�s Top Places to Work are
based on survey information collected by Workplace Dynamics, an
independent company specializing in employee engagement and
retention, from more than 120,000 employees at about 600
Massachusetts organizations. This marks the first time that a Globe
100 report honors private as well as publicly-held organizations
selected from across a wide range of industries. "Interactive Data
promotes a positive workplace environment, and we are honored to be
recognized by The Boston Globe as one of the top employers in
Massachusetts,� said Peg Murphy, vice president of human resources
for Interactive Data. �Being named to this prestigious ranking
underscores our commitment to a variety of key factors including
embracing diversity, providing competitive pay and benefits, and
offering interesting, challenging work � which all contribute to
employee satisfaction.� �All the companies included in the Globe
100�s Top Places to Work deserve a great deal of recognition,� said
Steve Ainsley, publisher of The Boston Globe. �It�s clear that they
value their employees and make it a priority to create a positive
workplace.� To qualify for the list, a company must have more than
100 employees in Massachusetts. Rankings were derived from
composite scores calculated purely on the basis of employee
responses. The Globe 100�s Top Places to Work magazine was
published in the Sunday Globe on November 9 and the entire report
