The Gunter Group is pleased to be selected as one of the 2015 ‘100 Best Companies’ to work for in Oregon by Oregon Business.  The 2015 list and rankings were unveiled at the 22nd Annual 100 Best Companiescelebration dinner on February 26th at the Oregon Convention Center.  Matt Bader, a consultant at The Gunter Group who attended the event, expressed his gratitude. “It is such an honor to be on the list in our first year of participation. That said, I am not totally surprised. Being a part of this organization over the last three and a half years, I have always known that we were building something special. This award is external validation of what I have known for years.” Ashleigh Gunter, Partner, said “It was really exciting to spend the evening with Oregon’s best companies.  It makes me so proud that our team believes we should be at the table with these amazing organizations!”

Five teammates representing The Gunter Group attended the dinner: Bader, Gunter, Tony Schweiss, Lindsey Swinehart and Ralph Pero. The event celebrates the top 100 companies to work for in Oregon, and the list is divided into three categories based on company size.    The evening focused on recognizing the people that are essential for businesses to succeed – the employees. The Top 100 ranking is based on confidential employee surveys with questions related to workplace satisfaction including benefits, management, trust, work environment, and career development.  This year, over 270 companies and 11,500 employees participated in the survey. The Gunter Group is thrilled to be recognized as part of this group of outstanding companies, and especially proud to be on the list in our first year of participation.

The Gunter Group is committed to creating a positive and rewarding environment for consultants interested in being part of a high caliber team of professionals.  According to Schweiss, “What this award says about The Gunter Group in particular, is that our consultants find it rewarding and exciting to work with each other.  We’re invested in our clients’ work and dedicated to helping each other succeed.  Our dedication to excellence is the shared interest that aligns us with each other.”
