Dallas, Texas - Ryan, a leading global tax services firm with the largest indirect tax practice in North America, today announced that the Firm’s Austin, Texas office was selected as one of the Best Places to Work in Central Texas for the third consecutive year. The Firm was ranked 21st on the Austin Business Journal’s 2012 Best Places to Work list.
