Founded in 1987, Silvon boasts a client list including Johnson & Johnson, Sony Corporation of America, and Coca-Cola Foods. Big name customers like those, along with savvy industry alliances have kept the Westmont, Illinois-based company on top of the software solutions pile.

Your typical high-tech company, Silvon employees work hard in a laid back atmosphere. Unless clients are visiting, employees march into the office in "jeans and T-shirts, jogging suits, shorts, whatever." One contact notes that the best things about working for Silvon were, "smart people, flexible hours, and a casual work environment." In fact, the company may be a little too casual for some, as one employee noted, "Though I liked the laid-back dress code, I had problems with the major lack of structure in the office, because the result was not enough internal support to meet goals." On the other hand, one former employee reports, "I felt the management team was very good, I really enjoyed working there." With competitive salaries, employees praise Silvon's hefty bonus commisions, and bonus trips to the Carribean.
