Sleep Experts ranks 28th on The Dallas Morning News Top 100 Places to Work 2009 list

Carrollton, Texas - November 13, 2009 - Dallas/Fort Worth mattress retailer Sleep Experts has been recognized by The Dallas Morning News as one of D/FW's Top 100 Places to Work 2009. In a special publication in the newspaper's November 8th edition, the company ranks 28th on the overall list and 11th among midsize companies with 100 to 499 employees. Sleep Experts is the only company in the mattress industry to make the list.

The Top 100 Places to Work was determined through surveys of employees of approximately 1,000 companies, conducted by The Dallas Morning News and its research partner Workplace Dynamics. The companies that made the list excelled in areas including leadership, company direction, opportunities for career advancement, physical conditions of the workplace, and fair pay and benefits.

Cheryl Hall, business columnist for The Dallas Morning News, wrote about the survey results in the Top 100 Places to Work publication, saying: "These D-FW companies - large, medium and small - are as good as it gets when it comes to creating workplace environments that nurture and respect employees, and in the process, make those employees proud to be there."

"We are honored to be included on the inaugural Top 100 Places to Work 2009 list," said Chris Cook, CEO of Sleep Experts. "We believe that exceptional customer service comes from happy employees, so part of our corporate purpose is to create a positive work environment where our people can develop their skills and grow both professionally and personally."
