CHICAGO (May 19, 2017) — The Mx Group, a B2B marketing agency in Chicago, has been named one of 2017’s Best Places to Work in Illinois for the fourth consecutive year. The awards program, promoted in partnership with The Daily Herald Business Ledger, identifies, recognizes and honors the best places of employment in Illinois. Qualification for this prestigious list is heavily based on employee feedback. This year, The Mx Group was selected in the medium employer category for the first time, reflecting the firm’s consistent growth.

The Mx Group is a nationally recognized digital and demand generation agency that empowers its clients with the competitive edge of modern B2B marketing. It provides a set of integrated marketing services that span marketing strategy, design and content, web and mobile app development, demand generation and lead management.

The firm offers its over 100 employees extensive benefits, resources and opportunities to foster a unique and fun workplace. It recently updated its robust benefits package to include paid parental leave, a popular Employee Assistance Program and an additional week of paid vacation in December. To encourage an environment of creativity and camaraderie, the firm also regularly hosts company-wide activities like beanbag tournaments, chili cook-offs and trivia contests, and keeps a refrigerator stocked with craft beer.

In addition to making the Best Places to Work list four years running, The Mx Group was named one of the Chicago Tribune’s 2016 Top Workplaces, as well as one of Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® in 2016. It was also ranked a top 10 U.S. B2B agency by B2B Marketing, and a top 50 B2B agency by Ad Age and Chief Marketer.

“Being named a Best Place to Work four years in a row is an enormous honor,” said Andy Mahler, The Mx Group’s CEO and co-founder. “For over 25 years, we’ve been committed to excellence, not just in our client work, but in our company culture too. We’re always looking for new ways to foster a welcoming, collaborative workplace. This award is an exciting validation of our efforts, and we’re not slowing down now.”

“At The Mx Group, we work hard for our clients, but we also work hard to make everyone on the team feel welcome, appreciated and supported,” said Miro Zugovic, The Mx Group’s manager of video and front end development. “For example, our parental leave policy was a huge benefit to me when my daughter was born. The Mx Group’s commitment to supporting its employees professionally and personally is genuine, and makes this a special place to work.”

The Mx Group was recognized and honored at the awards ceremony coordinated by The Daily Herald Business Ledger on May 18, and will be profiled in a special publication on June 26. The final rankings were published to the Business Ledger website.
