Panamax/Furman Named as One of the Best Places to Work in the North Bay

PETALUMA, Calif. — Sept. 9, 2010 — Panamax/Furman today announced that the company has been selected as one of the best places to work in the North Bay in the fifth-annual North Bay Business Journal survey.

Winners of the North Bay Business Journal’s Best Places to Work award were selected from nominees by the Business Journal editorial department based on several criteria, including the results of an anonymous employee survey and a company application that provided information on issues such as diversity, benefits, and community involvement.

“It is an honor to be named one of the best places to work in the North Bay. For us, the most gratifying aspect of this award is that it is greatly determined by employee surveys,” stated Bill Pollock, president of Panamax/Furman. “This award demonstrates that our employees have not only embraced the culture we have worked hard to develop at Panamax/Furman over the years, but that they are pleased with the direction the company is going, as we extend our presence in the energy management market with our BlueBOLT(R) platform.”

Profiles of the winners will appear in a special publication supplementing the Business Journal’s Sept. 27 issue, and winners will be honored at a gala reception on Sept. 23 at the Doubletree Hotel in Rohnert Park.
