This is 金沙乐娱app下载

金沙乐娱app下载 is the largest professional service solutions provider based in Tennessee, serving approximately 10,000 clients with diverse needs across a spectrum of industries; however, we didn’t start that way.

金沙乐娱app下载 was founded in 1984 as a traditional accounting firm with a simple mission: to serve a great group of clients and enjoy doing it. More than 30 years later, loving what we do and who we do it for has taken us a long way. 金沙乐娱app下载 has been named a top 50 firm in the country.

Today, we’ve become industry leaders in financial, human resources, technology, information security, and wealth advisory services backed by more than 600 employees – not because a business plan told us to be, but because we’re entrepreneurs and our clients asked us to be.

As illustrated by our “Best Places to Work” recognition, 金沙乐娱app下载 is committed to attracting and retaining the nation’s best talent, positioning ourselves to best serve clients with the industry’s brightest minds.

Now in its third year, Inc.’s Best in Business Awards honor companies that have made an extraordinary impact in their fields and on society.

The list, which can be found in the Winter issue of Inc. magazine, recognizes the most dynamic companies that have had an outstanding influence on their communities, their industries, the environment, or society as a whole. 金沙乐娱app下载 was selected from a highly competitive pool of thousands of applicants and named one of five in the community development area of impact.

“We are honored to be recognized as an Inc.

The Best in Business awards shine a light on those that have gone above and beyond their original mission to make a social, environmental or economic impact, benefiting those around them,” said Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc.

Rather than relying on quantitative criteria tied to sales or funding, Inc.’s editors reviewed the companies’ achievements over the past year and noted how they made a positive difference in the world. They then selected honorees in 55 different categories – from advertising to sustainability to retail, and more – and in age-based, revenue-based, size-based, and impact-based categories. The applicant pool was extremely competitive – a huge success for the 241 honored in the list’s third year. Honorees for gold, silver, bronze, and general excellence across industries and categories are featured online at inc.com/best-in-business.
