ORLANDO, Fla.--()--IZEA, Inc. (NASDAQ: IZEA), operator of IZEAx, the premier online marketplace connecting brands and publishers with influential content creators, was recently selected as one of the 2018 Orlando Sentinel Top 100 Companies. The employee-based award program was designed to identify and recognize the best places of employment in Central Florida and was created by Orlando Sentinel and the Best Companies Group.

In order for a company to be eligible for the award, employees are asked to complete a two-part survey. The initial part of the survey evaluates the nominated workplace policies, procedures, workplace culture, and demographics. The next part asks the employee about their workplace experience. The combination of these two scores determines the organizational rankings.

We are honored to be recognized for the third consecutive year by the Orlando Sentinel as a high-ranking employer,” said Ted Murphy, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of IZEA. “The investments that we make in our talent and culture are important to us. We strive to create the best work environment and overall experience we can for our team members and will continue to invest in our people.”
