The statewide survey and awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Illinois, benefiting the state–s economy, workforce and businesses. The 2015 Best Places to Work in Illinois list is made up of 31 companies in the small employer category (15-99 U.S. employees), 26 companies in the medium employer category (100-499 U.S. employees), and 17 companies in the large employer category (500 or more U.S. employees). Magenium Solutions was named one of the Best Places to Work in Illinois in the small business category.
