Avoiding speedy deletion
editThanks for your message. You should find some material to help you in the list above, which should provide you with some reading material. The main guidance on the notability of companies is here; other problems in this area (adverts / spam etc) are dealt with here. However, before you get writing, I would strongly advise that you don't write about the company you work for: this falls foul of Wikipedia's approach to conflicts of interest. If the company really is notable and there are sufficient reliable sources, then someone else will write about it in due course. Let me know if there's anything else.
