ConvergEx's Eze Castle Software Again Named a Best Place to Work in Massachusetts

NEW YORK, June 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ConvergEx Group, a leading technology company, today announced that Eze Castle Software has once again been named one of the Best Places to Work in Massachusetts in the Boston Business Journal's ninth annual regional awards program. This is the fifth consecutive year Eze Castle Software has placed on the list.  This honor recognizes companies that create a positive work environment, one that attracts and retains employees through a combination of employee satisfaction, working conditions and company culture.

Companies were evaluated on the results of more than 18,000 employee-satisfaction surveys that addressed such factors as their pride in the company, company encouragement, support and recognition of achievement and relationships with co-workers and supervisors.

ConvergEx also announced today that CivilianJobs.com recently named Eze Castle Software a finalist for their 2011 Most Valuable Employers (MVE) for Military awards. The MVE finalists were selected based on surveys in which employers outlined their 2011 recruiting, training and retention plans that best serve military service members and veterans.

"We understand that our employees are our most valuable resource and our most powerful business advantage," said Tom Gavin, chief executive officer of ConvergEx's Eze Castle Software. "We have worked hard over the years to create a culture where our employees can thrive and feel proud of their hard work and we are thrilled to receive these acknowledgments."

These recognitions come on the heels of Eze being named Hedge Fund Technology Provider of the Year at the International Custody & Fund Administration 2011 Americas Service Provider Awards.
