Of the 27 companies highlighted in the magazine's December issue, QuiBids was the fourth smallest employer and the only online-exclusive retailer. "As such a young company it's a huge honor for us to be included among so many of our state's most reputable businesses," said Jill Farrand, QuiBids' director of public relations. The magazine's criteria for determining its Great Companies to Work For included an online application process, panel review, consultation with "leading business interests and organizations in the state," and the review of similar such studies of Oklahoma employers, according to its December issue. Other honorees included Reasor's Foods, Kimray, and Goodyear Tire & Rubber.

Now QuiBids employs about 150 people who do business on two floors in one of the city's Class A office establishments.
