The video features a reference to Quicken Loans Inc. that is Detroit based and was voted in Fortunes top 30 list of ‘Best Companies to Work for’ for the 8th year in a row.

Quicken Loans moved its headquarters and 1,700 team members to a vibrant state-of-the-art office space in the heart of downtown Detroit in the summer of 2010. The company’s new colorful and collaborative home was designed to inspire creativity and innovation by taking on a distinct “anti-corporate” identity. The company is planning on moving an additional 2,000 of its team members to Detroit in the next year.

This project is a great example how businesses are taking advantage of the Detroit market and creating new jobs.
