Transfinder, a leading provider of transportation management solutions for more than 1,500 school districts in North America and the Caribbean, was named one of the Best Places to Work in the Capital Region for 2013 by the Albany Business Review.

Transfinder received the award for companies with 50 to 75 employees. It is Transfinder’s first time making the list. Only 30 companies received the award this year, with more than 120 companies participating by submitting anonymous employee surveys. Quantum Workplace, an Omaha, Nebraska, research firm, compiled the results.

“This is a great honor to receive such an award as it can only be achieved by employees that recognize our company as a great place to work,” said Antonio Civitella, Transfinder president and CEO. “We strive to create an environment where employees can be creative, collaborative, and productive. But we also make sure to reward our hard work by celebrating together our achievements. We hope to continue to attract great talent to our workplace and the Capital Region.”

In becoming a Best Place to Work, employees recognized the company’s frequent celebrations of employee birthdays and accomplishments and competitive salaries. Civitella surprised employees by giving the entire staff Dec. 23 off for surpassing revenue goals. Transfinder recently relocated to its new modern headquarters on State Street in Schenectady, not far from Proctors.

Companies receiving the annual award were honored at the annual luncheon Friday, December 6 at the Hilton Albany.
