ATLANTA (April 24, 2014) – Jackson Spalding, an integrated marketing communications firm with offices in Atlanta, Athens, Ga. and Dallas, Texas, placed 4th in the “Top 40 Small Companies Category” (less than 150 employees in Metro-Atlanta) in the annual Top Workplaces study conducted by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Workplace Dynamics. No other communications, public relations, digital, advertising or marketing firm placed higher than 15th in any category, which includes midsize and large companies (more than 150 employees in metro Atlanta).
“This recognition is a testament to our employees and the work environment they cultivate at the firm,” said Eric O’Brien, co-owner of Jackson Spalding. “Plus, a better workplace ultimately leads to superior client service and helps to advance our clients’ strategic goals, which hits the bull’s eye of our firm’s mission.”
Jackson Spalding climbed 25 spots since the last time they were featured in the AJC Top Workplaces list in 2011.
From The Atlanta Journal-Constitution – More than 1,200 companies were nominated or asked to participate in the 2014 contest by the AJC and its partner, Workplace Dynamics, after employees across the metro area responded to print and online solicitations that began appearing in October.
A common theme crystallizes in the articles about these companies that have earned the loyalty and affection of their employees: They have invested as much in their employees’ well-being as they have in tangible perks. The reward for the company can be measured in satisfied customers and on the bottom line.

The company has three offices (Atlanta, Athens, Ga. and Dallas, Texas), more than 95 team members and a client roster that includes Orkin, Toyota, Delta Air Lines, Chick-fil-A, SCANA Energy, Mattress Firm, the College Football Hall of Fame, the Atlanta Braves, Publix Super Markets, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and Primrose Schools, to name a few.
