PPD Named One of NC's Best Employers      5-Aug-09 04:38 pm    
If this is the case, why the heck does everything seem so screwed up. Just look at Covance barreling ahead and then look at PPD

WILMINGTON, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PPD, Inc. (Nasdaq: PPDI) today announced it has been named one of the Best Employers in North Carolina for 2009 and is featured in the July/August issue of NC Magazine.

The award honors the best places of employment in North Carolina, recognizing companies that benefit the state’s economy and work force. In addition to NC Magazine, the North Carolina Chamber, the North Carolina Society for Human Resources Management and Best Companies Group created the program.

A broad group of PPD’s North Carolina employees were surveyed to gauge the company’s workplace philosophy, policies, practices and systems.

“PPD is committed to recruiting, developing and retaining top talent and creating a challenging and rewarding work environment for our employees,” said Ed Murray, senior vice president of human resources for PPD. “With more than 3,000 employees in North Carolina, we are honored to be named one of the state’s best employers.
