Even in today’s economy, many companies are still taking very good care of their employees. Congratulations to NetApp for achieving the #1 spot replacing ever popular Google. Check out the entire list here.
It’s nice to see my home state of California is home to the most companies on this year’s list.
VIANOVA is a boutique management consulting firm specializing in business, project, and event planning services.
We help entrepreneurs, companies, and nonprofits create a better world through business.
VIANOVA is a certified B Corporation. B Corporations are a new type of corporation that use the power of business to create public benefit.
It’s an interesting list but I can’t seem to find their methodology. Is it available? There are some obvious choices on the list but also a few big questions. Goldman Sachs? Really? Why? Here’s Fortune’s explanation:
“Wall Street survivor turned itself into a bank holding company in September and laid off some 3,000 people across the globe by year-end. Top seven officers agreed to forgo bonuses, but rest of staff was in line to receive performance bonuses, albeit at a lower rate.”
Massive layoffs and flagging performance doesn’t sound like my ideal company!
Jeff,
Thank you for your post. I don’t have any specifics about their methodology. What I do know is the list is produced by the Great Places to Work Institute.
The other cool thing about this year’s list is that the number of companies on the list that offer sabbaticals for their employees has grown. Last year, there were 16. This year, there are 19. For the list of those 19, see http://tiny.cc/TuqiD.
Thanks for sharing the article. By the way I am geologist & I am looking for change because I fed up with my current employer. I searched online & I got to know about Field and Technical Services .It is the good place for work. Employees of this company are easy going & friendly. Any information about them will be helpful for me.
