GFI Digital Honored as a 2010 Best Place to Work

We recently received exciting news recognizing GFI as one of St. Louis’ ”Best Places to Work“.   

Each year the St. Louis Business Journal partners with a research company to determine which companies in St. Louis are considered to be a great place to work.  After companies are nominated, employees are interviewed to determine their overall satisfaction in the work place. And when the results were in, GFI Digital was nominated as a  finalist in the category for medium sized companies.    

This is exciting on a number of levels. From the very beginning, we have believed that by investing in people, we achieve our greatest success – from our employees, to our customers and the community we serve. With that said, we would like to congratulate all of the other companies that have also been recognized as a great place to work.  Congratulations!

An Evening with the St. Louis Blues

On Friday night, I experienced something very familiar – a tailgate with friends, new and old, GFI-style in our 43-foot coach tour bus at the St. Louis Blues hockey game. The evening festivities began around 5:30 and we were quickly joined by our friends from Stifel Nicolaus and the St. Louis Blues. It wasn’t long before we were all caught up in the pre-game excitement and the anticipation of the upcoming game.

Blues Oct 23

While familiar in some aspects, there was something special about Friday night. From the wonderful location of the tailgate (located just outside of the main entrance of the Scottrade Center) to celebrating a new partnership with the St. Louis Blues; from meeting 14 children and their families from the Dream Factory and the Blues 14 Fund to witnessing a 3 -1 victory against the Minnesota Wild.

All in all, everyone enjoyed the excitement, good conversations and the opportunity to get together and enjoy the game. We’re looking forward to many more tailgates with all of our friends while we enjoy the 2009-2010 hockey season with the St. Louis Blues.

Next up, the St. Louis Blues versus Florida Panthers on Saturday, October 31, 2009.
