Citrix Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:CTXS), the global leader in application
delivery infrastructure, today announced it was named one of the top 10
places to work in the annual ranking of "100 Best Places to Work in the
Bay Area” by the San Francisco Business Times,
Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal and East Bay Business Times.
Citrix ranked ninth among companies with 101 to 500 employees in the Bay
Area. The publications surveyed over 200,000 employees from more than
500 nominated companies, measuring their satisfaction on a wide array of
topics including work culture, management and benefits. Winning
companies were announced at an awards ceremony on Tuesday night, April
29, in San Francisco and a full list of winners was published by all
three sponsoring publications on Friday, May 2.
Since earning a Top 20 spot in last year’s
awards, Citrix has continued to build momentum in the Bay Area, opening
up a new Silicon Valley headquarters in Santa Clara and growing its Bay
Area presence to nearly 500 employees. This location now serves as a
strategic second headquarters for the company, with aggressive growth
plans for 2008 as Citrix continues to build its virtualization and
networking solutions into an end-to-end infrastructure for application
delivery.
“Silicon Valley is a geography that holds some
of the world’s most impressive engineering
talent. We’ve continued to attract the best
the Bay Area has to offer by bringing the innovative spirit of a startup
and melding it with the stability of an established billion-dollar
market leader,” said Wes Wasson, chief
marketing officer for Citrix. “To be
recognized as one of the top 10 companies to work for in a region of so
many esteemed companies is a tremendous honor, especially since our
ranking is based directly on our employees’
feedback about being a part of the Citrix family.”
