SAN DIEGO – May 28, 2010 - Barney & Barney LLC, San Diego’s largest and oldest privately held insurance brokerage, was recognized in the Large Business Category as one of San Diego’s "Best Places to Work", an awards program hosted this week by the San Diego Business Journal. Out of the fifty-five finalists, only five were recognized in each of the large, medium and small business categories.

The award rankings were based largely on the results of anonymous employee surveys that assessed how associates feel in regards to leadership, communication, work environment, training and development, benefits and pay, and more.

"This is the third time in recent years that we’ve been recognized as a best place to work in San Diego, and we couldn’t be prouder – it means we’re doing something right," said Paul Hering, Managing Principal and CEO of Barney & Barney.

"We take employee satisfaction and morale seriously. We strive to understand work challenges, and provide an atmosphere where people are enabled and encouraged to succeed. We continually add resources and benefits for our associates; things like paid continuing education courses, time off for volunteering, flex time and more," continued Paul.

"Understanding that engaged employees provide better service to our clients, we’re committed to enriching our associate’s experience by involving them in the business decisions of our company as well as supporting their desire for a balanced life.  This brings about a collaborative, team-based atmosphere which exudes the pride and passion for achieving personal, business and client goals," Mr. Hering concluded.
