Industry Recognitions and Awards

The company has been named a leading employer in the country since 2007

Sofia – November 30, 2012 - Telerik, leading end-to-end provider of software application, lifecycle and content management solutions, is once again ranked number 1 “Best Employer in Bulgaria in 2012” in AonHewitt’s annual study. The Bulgarian Minister of Labor and Social Policy personally presented the award to Svetozar Georgiev and Vassil Terziev, CEOs of Telerik. Every year since 2007 the company has been positioned among the leading employers, having twice, in 2010 and 2007, been ranked first among small and medium-sized companies and third in Central and Eastern Europe in 2007.

The “Best Employers in 2012 in Bulgaria” study distinguished Telerik because of its outstanding work environment, the opportunities it provides for development and work-life balance, the manager-employee relationships within the company, remuneration and benefits packages, and its leading HR policies and thus gives an objective appraisal of the company as an employer.

Recognizing Telerik’s growth and expansion, for the first time this year AonHewitt, one of the global leaders in human capital consulting, positioned Telerik in the category “Medium-sized Companies” with up to 1,000 employees. 10 years after the company was founded in 2002, today there are 700 Telerik employees in 11 offices on 4 continents, and the company’s products are used by 100 000 clients in 94 countries worldwide. In 2012 Telerik added more than 150 new hires to its team in Bulgaria alone.

Vassil Terziev, CEO of Telerik, said: "In the past 10 years together with our colleagues and community at large, we managed to build a world-class company that started in Bulgaria, but is now well-known pretty much on all continents. The high praise that our colleagues have afforded us today is a result of our unique culture and DNA, which we jointly created and continue to nourish every day. This culture is the real reason behind our success and in the future with the expansion of the Telerik family, it will be our best-guarded treasure and preserving it – our priority.”

In 2012, AonHewitt studied the assessment and engagement of over 250 000 employees, 2500 top managers and HR professionals from 400 companies in 8 countries in Central and Eastern Europe – Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Turkey, Poland, Russia and Lithuania.
