This is the second consecutive year that Esurance made the list of best places to work in Tampa, with the company ranked 11th among midsized companies in this year's survey. The program, administered by Workplace Dynamics, is based on survey feedback from Esurance associates, and speaks to current and prospective employees about the company's values and corporate culture.

The accreditation recognizes Esurance as a dynamic, inclusive, and diverse workplace that rewards individual achievement as well as promotes personal development. Employees nominated their employers and were surveyed about several topics, including practices and policies that make these companies the top places to work. The companies were ranked based on leadership, compensation and training, workplace flexibility, and diversity.

"Our goals are to make each associate feel valued, to provide opportunities for career growth, and to actively participate in the communities where we live and work, and this award shows that we are achieving those goals," said Sandy Hynes, Esurance vice president of human resources. "It reinforces Esurance as an exciting place to build a career and will help us attract and retain valuable talent."

Esurance expects to hire more than 400 new employees in 2011 in every discipline across the company. Associates enjoy competitive salaries, a generous bonus system, and a comprehensive benefits package that includes 401(k) matching, tuition reimbursement, gym membership discounts, flex time, and a charitable gift-match program.
