Pacific added 30 local employees to hit 100. No significant trend, up or down, appeared on the list; some companies added 5-10 positions, yet other offset it by trimming staff. All 53 companies confirmed their 2011 revenue and employment numbers for this report.
We use categories of revenue that reflect ranges of gross sales because many businesses prefer to reveal approximations. Based on reliable reporting sources we believe that other companies meet the criteria for inclusion, but they declined to reveal their information.
