Dallas, Texas – Ryan, a leading global tax services firm with the largest indirect tax practice in North America, today announced that the Firm has been named one of the “50 Most Engaged Workplaces™ in the United States” by I Love Rewards, the leader in employee rewards and recognition solutions. This annual award recognizes top employers that display leadership and innovation in engaging their employees while creating a positive, thriving work environment. Ryan was selected based on the Eight Elements of Employee Engagement™, which include communication, leadership, culture, rewards and recognition, professional and personal growth, accountability and performance, vision and values, and corporate social responsibility.

The Firm’s innovative myRyan work environment changed the measurement of work performance from hours worked to results achieved and has earned international recognition and numerous accolades. Ryan rolled out myRyan in August 2008 as a major culture shift designed to reach even higher levels of client service and employee satisfaction. Since its inception, myRyan has delivered tremendous dividends for the Firm, its clients, and its employees.

Most importantly, Ryan employees have achieved the highest client satisfaction ratings in the history of the Firm, while enjoying the freedom to meet the competing demands of work and life.
