NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Sep 29, 2016) - Ready Set Rocket, a New York City-based digital marketing agency committed to connecting brands and consumers through innovative multi-channel experiences, today announces its recognition as one of the Best Places to Work in New York City.

"As a company, the most important value we provide our employees is the guarantee that everyone they work with will be passionate, motivated, and an expert in their craft," said Alex Lirtsman, co-founder and chief strategist of Ready Set Rocket. "Prioritizing a culture of learning creates a process rooted in collaboration and mentorship that keeps people around. As leaders, our job is to hire brilliant people and cultivate their talent by providing them with an environment to learn and grow on a daily basis. We've worked hard to do so over the past 7 years, and it's resulted in an agile team that knows how to strategically tackle challenges together."

Crain's New York Business launched the recognition program nine years ago, and today, it is a joint effort of Crain's New York Business and Best Companies Group. This survey and awards program identifies, recognizes and honors the best employers in New York City, benefiting the city's economy, workforce and businesses.
