SCOTTSDALE, AZ -- (Marketwired) -- 12/13/13 -- TASER (NASDAQ: TASR) today announced that it was honored as one of the Best Medium-Sized Companies to Work For in 2014, a Glassdoor Employees' Choice Award. The Employees' Choice Awards rely solely on the input of employees, who elect to provide feedback on their jobs, work environments and companies via Glassdoor's anonymous online company review survey.

"This is quite an honor for TASER International and it's a testament that you can keep everyone excited about their jobs when your mission is saving lives," said winning company CEO and founder, Rick Smith. "A lot of people know us for our TASER Smart Weapons and technology but they may not know that we built the first major cloud computing platform called EVIDENCE.com that's sweeping through the law enforcement community as our second revolutionary new product. The quality of life is important here and we use technology to make a difference in the world. Our culture is fun and working in an open environment in our amazing building promotes a positive attitude. We try to attract the best and brightest that want the challenge to change lives and being honored on this list is a great start."

"Glassdoor is working to create greater workplace transparency and is committed to helping people find jobs they love," said Glassdoor CEO and Co-founder Robert Hohman. "Through the Employees' Choice Awards, we aim to highlight those employers that excel in keeping employees satisfied and engaged."

The Glassdoor company review survey includes both quantitative and qualitative questions designed to capture a genuine and authentic inside look at what it's like to work at particular jobs and companies. The survey asks employees to rate their satisfaction with the company overall, and key workplace factors like career opportunities, compensation and benefits, work/life balance, senior management, as well as culture and values. In addition, employees are asked to describe the best reasons to work at their company as well as any downsides.

The Best Medium-Sized Companies to Work for List is determined using company reviews shared by U.S. based employees who elected to participate in the survey between November 14, 2012 and November 12, 2013. To be considered for the list, a company must have between 250-999 employees and have received at least 20 approved company reviews during the window of eligibility. The final list is compiled based on Glassdoor's proprietary algorithm, and takes into account quantity, quality and consistency of reviews.
