Hi everyone!
Can anyone give me a run-down of any major corporations or decent-sized companies that are head-quartered in the Pittsburgh area? Maybe even any geared towards automotive-related areas or retail-based?
Thanks so much!

I stole this from Wikipedia. Hopefully people will add to it or correct it if it's wrong.

Pittsburgh has grown its industry base in recent years to include technology, retail, finance and medicine. The largest employer in the city is the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (26,000 employees) and the University of Pittsburgh (10,700 employees).[42]

I understand that Dick's Sporting Goods is in the process of building their corporate headquarters on airport property. It is supposed to have its own taxiway, and hangar facility.

As long as we're on food, Eat 'n' Park and Kings are HQ'd here, too.

Then there's Lanxness (a Bayer spinoff) out in Robinson.

I thought GNC was headquartered here too, but I could be wrong.
