The results are from a recent anonymous survey of ezCater’s top 550 customers in a broad array of industries including pharmaceuticals and medical, financial services, construction, engineering, technology, and consumer products. Among the major findings from the survey:

Employees benefit through everything from lower hassle to higher commissions,” said Stefania Mallett, Chief Executive Officer, ezCater, Inc. “All told, that is an impressive ROI from a service that is literally free.”
