MNJ Technologies Ranked 15th ‘Best Place to Work in Illinois’

– MNJ Technologies, a midmarket-focused IT solution and managed services provider, today announced that it has been named as the 15th Best Place to Work in Illinois among medium size companies. It is one of only 19 companies recognized in the program’s 100-to-499-employee category this year, based on an analysis of nominees’ workplace policies, practices and demographics as well as an employee work experience survey.

The statewide competition is sponsored by The Daily Herald Business Ledger in partnership with the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, MRA-The Management Association, the Small Business Advocacy Council and Best Companies Group.

The accolade is the latest in a series received by MNJ since January, including recognition on the CRN 2020 MSP Elite 150 and CRN Tech Elite 250 lists, advancement to Platinum Level status in the Dell Technologies Partner Program, and achievement of the new Cisco CX Specialization designation for maximizing customer satisfaction. These honors stemmed in part from MNJ’s rapid growth, including a 23% overall revenue increase in 2019 that far outpaced other companies in the space.

“We have spent the last three years in an extensive company makeover that has included a heavy emphasis on corporate culture. Initiatives have ranged from running improvisation workshops to help our employees think creatively to overhauling our commission and health insurance plans, establishing quarterly coffee talks and mentoring programs, and adding paid time off for community service or volunteer activities,” said MNJ President Susan Kozak. “These efforts have not only led directly to our Best Places to Work in Illinois honors but also have been instrumental in driving company growth.”

The final rankings were announced at an August 20 awards ceremony, posted on the Business Ledger website, and will be published in September issue of the Daily Herald Business Ledger on September 21st .
