 * Delete per nom - I exhaustively combed the web and could only find this article [] talking about their new interns. Definitely needs to be deleted. Great catch, bro! BlueSalix (talk) 15:52, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Upgrading to Strong Delete and recommend WP:SALTing as PR-cruft. BlueSalix (talk) 19:44, 22 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep and improve - seems fairly notable, with a lot of good secondary coverage online from WP:RS.

 * Upgrading to Strong Keep I've removed the copyrighted promotional junk added by a company employee, and added a history section using the references above (plus another I found from the DT). It certainly meets Notability (organizations and companies) with the level of press coverage it's received, and no longer has a promotional tone. Ruby   Murray  11:15, 23 January 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep and improve. The sources provided above by User:Ruby Murray demonstrate that this company meets WP:CORPDEPTH. Northamerica1000(talk) 18:28, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
