This survey and award program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Virginia, which benefit the state's economy and its work force.  Last fall, the Brandywine Virginia regional offices participated in the two-part survey process to nominate the Company.  The first part consisted of evaluating the Company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics.

"We are extremely delighted to have been recognized in this first annual program for Best Places to Work in Virginia," said William D. Redd, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Richmond Region.  "Brandywine's success is due to the contribution made by our employees on a daily basis.  Their constant hard work, dedication and commitment have helped to create a strong culture that recognizes individual excellence, creative persistence and commitment to the Company's mission of providing extraordinary work environments."
