Non notable and promotional. Regional firm/ The "awards" are merely "Best company to work for", a type of award which is entirely promotional, based on no clear criteria. DGG ( talk ) 04:57, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete WP:CORP includes this, which is often forgotten: "Evidence of significant coverage by international or national, or at least regional, media is a strong indication of notability. On the other hand, attention solely from local (as in - with a circulation limited to a single city or metropolitan area) media, or media of limited interest and circulation (such as trade journals), is not an indication of notability; at least one regional, statewide, provincial, national, or international source is necessary." For a local-only company to meet WP:CORP something extraordinary has to be visible. I'm sure it's a perfectly good company, but it is not in any way encyclopedic.

  • Delete and I planned to comment sooner, there's still nothing minimally convincing of the needed substantial notability. SwisterTwister talk 07:47, 7 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete:A WP:SPA article on a firm. Placing in a newsaper's "Best Companies to Work For" list may perhaps be worth noting within an article, but is not itself evidence of notability. Nor are my searches showing anything substantial: local coverage of routine announcements, planning disputes, an OFT list in 2008, etc. AllyD (talk) 13:33, 7 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
