Parsippany, N.J., November 16, 2015 – Coyne Public Relations today announced that it is ranked as the 20th company on Advertising Age’s list of 50 Best Places to Work in Advertising & Media. The agency was among 50 companies selected based on criteria such as hiring practices, benefits packages, salaries, office perks and work-life balance. More than 21,000 people were surveyed as part of the selection process that was open to any agency, ad-tech or media company with more than 40 full-time employees in the U.S.

Ad Age discovered that while employees are fans of on-site perks and free snacks, the best reviews came from those who admire their bosses, understand their company’s mission and feel appreciated. As Ad Age put it, “It’s at once the most simple – and most complicated – formula to get right.”

Coyne PR strives to get this formula right every day. The agency’s mission is to be the best place work through various initiatives. Benefits include a copay reimbursement plan for all doctor visits, a generous holiday schedule along with up to 20 vacation days per year, unlimited sick time and a birthday vacation day.  The agency's annual open door HR survey indicates employees choose to stay at Coyne PR because it has a “creative, fun and energetic work environment with great clients and co-workers.” To foster teamwork and collaboration throughout all levels, the agency has a steady diet of amazing team-building events.

“As our agency continues to expand, we are especially proud to be among the 50 Best Places to Work in Advertising & Media,” said Tom Coyne, CEO of Coyne PR. “We’ve always believed that if we put our people first, the rest will fall into place. The past two decades have taught me that our culture is equally as important as the work we do – and that happy people produce a higher level of results.”

As an agency spanning multiple industries, an honor of such high-esteem is an indicator for the success to come as the practices continue to develop. The agency is, and will continue to be, a place that nurtures and develops creativity and unique ideas to keep employees happy and clients coming back for more.

Advertising Age is celebrating all of the top-ranked companies across industry in the 2015 Best Places to Work report.
