Given the current state of the economy I thought some job seekers (and employees) might be curious to know who is doing well these days.
I was reading the North Bay Biz’s 2009 edition (the 19th annual) of the top 500 ranking businesses in the North Bay and some of the companies I found on there were a little surprising. (If the banks, health care providers and car dealers are hurting, you may not know it by this list.)
