Sundog Named Best Place to Work in North Dakota
Sundog, a Fargo-based marketing and technology services company, has been named Best Place to Work in North Dakota by the North Dakota Young Professionals (NDYP). The honor was announced today in Bismarck at a ceremony attended by Governor Jack Dalrymple.
“Sundog is thrilled to receive this honor from the NDYP,” said Brent Teiken, Sundog chief executive officer. “Although the award recognizes our many young professionals, we strongly believe in developing all of our team members. Our culture is centered around professional growth, community involvement, a unique work environment and a family-first, fun atmosphere.”
As part of the selection process, the NDYP evaluates company benefits, advancement opportunities and whether the organization is an outstanding place for young professionals to work. A statewide committee of young professionals determines the winners.
“Over the past year, our company has earned new business across the country, added new team members, renovated our offices and launched new offices and partnerships,” Teiken added. “This award is further proof that we have some tremendous momentum as we enter 2011.”
