Strome Business Minute With Dr. Jeff Tanner

I’m Jeff Tanner and this is a Strome Business Minute, presented by the Strome College of Business. Move over Amazon. Here comes ASGN. Well, okay, not quite the size of Amazon but the relocation of ASGN corporate headquarters from California to Henrico County could be a sign of things to come as more companies flee the high cost of California, bringing 700 jobs to Virginia, including an expansion of its Virginia Beach operations to 147 employees. ASGN provides IT consulting services to commercial and government clients, and already has 4,000 employees across the state. The company will spend more than 12 million on two locations to provide room for the growth and the governor kicked in 900,000. The CEO told Virginia's business that this move brings the two largest divisions together, but you can't overlook that they also save a lot of money.
