"When you're on the phone and the person you're speaking with is smiling, you can tell. I think it's the same with all areas of business - you can tell when people like what they're doing, and it makes a difference."

Prestwick House supports its employees with a full range of benefits ranging from health, dental, and a 401-K to an in-office gym, tuition reimbursement, book allowances, and a comfortable coffee-shop-like workplace.

"The thing that helps keep things fun and interesting for us is that it's really satisfying to be able to help teachers. They're doing a tough job, and we're proud of being able to help them teach kids to love books like we do."

Book Business' first annual list of top North American publishing companies to work for was compiled from employee nominations and survey results. Each company was rated on factors such as pride in the company's performance, fairness of management, workload, and respect for the personal lives of employees.
