Back to News Releases
CARY, N.C., September 9, 2008 - The September issue of Carolina Parent magazine applauds SciQuest, Inc., for a second year in a row as part of its tenth annual North Carolina Family-Friendly 40 list. The list, which recognizes companies offering outstanding family-friendly benefits, highlights both small and large corporations for their readiness to listen and respond to parents' needs as they strive to balance work and family.
"Our N.C. Family-Friendly 40 honorees include a strong group of companies, both large and small, that provide benefits and family-friendly policies that enable parents and others caring for family members to balance the needs of their families with their commitment to their jobs," said Liz Holt, publisher of Carolina Parent. "SciQuest is one example of a local company that offers a strong benefits package, flexible work hours and supportive policies."
SciQuest, the global leader empowering enterprises to realize the potential of strategic procurement, also recently received recognition for its place once again on the Inc. 5000, Inc. magazine's second annual ranking of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the country.
"As we continue to grow at such a rapid pace, our current and future success is dependent upon the group of dedicated employees that comprise the SciQuest workforce," stated Stephen Wiehe, president and CEO of SciQuest. "Across all industries, most employees spend more time at work each week than with their families. We remain very devoted to taking care of our employees and their families, providing them with benefits that contribute to proper work/life balance; an essential element to their success, which in turn, contributes to our success."
This commitment to employees and customers is positively reflected in the company's satisfaction ratings - more than 97% of customers rate themselves as satisfied or very satisfied, and 99% of SciQuest employees would recommend the company to a close friend or family member.
The N.C. Family-Friendly 40 Companies will be honored at the Women@Work Breakfast on Wednesday, September 17th, in downtown Durham.
