Employees and management at Custom Air Products & Services, Inc. were both pleased and excited to be recognized by the Houston Chronicle as being one of the “Top Workplaces” in the Houston area for 2012.
“When we were contacted and told that one of our employees had nominated us for this prestigious award,” explained CEO Taylor Norris, “we weren’t really sure what to think. We have a tremendously talented and professional group of employees here, a group we are very proud of, but were not really sure how, or even if, they would respond to the surveys. When it was finished, discovering that our employees ranked us so highly as to be awarded a top spot was really a pleasant surprise.”
More than 72,500 Houston-area employee weighed in with opinions for this year’s Top Workplaces, and Custom Air Products & Services, Inc. was proud to be recognized in this prestigious group.
