Senior Housing Leader One of Only Six Companies Named to List Every Year Since Its Inception
WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Benchmark, a leading provider of senior housing in the Northeast, today announced that it has been named by The Boston Globe as one of the Top Places to Work for the 11th straight year.

Throughout its 11 years on this prestigious list, Benchmark has appeared with some of New England's most prominent companies, such as Accenture, Akamai, Massachusetts General Hospital and TripAdvisor.
