Feeling like a hamster in a Habitrail at work? Yearning for a better quality of life?

The Boston Business Journal has released its annual "Best Places to Work" list and several familiar names in the ad tech and marketing community on are it.

NetProspex and Fiksu both made the list for the third year in a row, with mobile app marketer Fiksu having taking the No. 1 spot last year in the mid-sized company category. Marketing analytics firm InsightSquared made the cut for the second consecutive year.

Also making the grade, email marketing analytics firm Litmus.

But the real winner is tech media group Tech Target, which scored a spot on the list for the seventh year running. That's a lot of happy workers. 

The Boston Business Journal anonymously surveyed employees from approximately 300 area companies before selecting 61 finalists. The companies were grouped into three categories, based on size. Winners from the three categories will be announced at an awards ceremony on June 12.
