GF works for whole foods...

 

[manlymatt83]

Friend works for Wegmans. She loves it.

 

[jlee]

I used to work for Publix Supermarkets...FWIW...

 

[slsmnaz]

I don't but I doubt my company would put that much effort into making the list.

 

[tw1164]

I curious what wage Wegmans pays.

 

[bobross419]

How do they really determine what is "best"??

I know more than a few people that work at Publix that aren't very happy with their jobs - Granted it could just be that they are the type of people that wouldn't like any job.

I wish that my company could have made it, but they're small. We get some good benefits though:

Free Insurance + $756 in your HSA
3 weeks vacation starting
Unlimited Sodas
Ping Pong games
Lunch at least once a month, if not two or three
Breakfast every Wednesday from Chick-fil-a

Doesn't seem like a lot, but I actually look forward to coming in - I haven't done that since 2001.

Wow, I didn't even think to look for them on this list. I left Accenture last November after abotu 2 years where I was consistently miserable at my job. Most of the people I know that still work there are miserable too. Guess the people they surveyed for this were not from the group I worked in.

Also with 170,000 employees worldwide, it's probably good that the haven't folded.

 

[QurazyQuisp]

I've taken an internship with one of the companies on the list. I've received an offer from another one on the list as well.

 

[nageov3t]

funny that Microsoft is on the list the day they're firing 5000 people. lol.

Yeah I wonder as well, my company is similar.

We get free health + $2400 in HSA
Not sure on vacation
Unlimited sodas, snacks.
No games, but massages on fridays.
Lunch once a week, sometimes twice.

My company is only like 20 people though.

Rank--Company--Job growth--U.S. employees
38-----Microsoft---15%---------55,237

Microsoft to slash 5,000 jobs, misses on 2Q profit

Article is misleading!

How can you not be sure about vacation?

 

[Queasy]

My parent company is #33 on the list.

 

[LordMorpheus]

I'd rather be where I am than at just about any of those companies on the list.

 

[rudder]

#38 microsoft.... is laying off 5000 people.

[DisgruntledVirus]

My company surprisingly isn't on the list.

Usually we are. We are high up there in benefits, diversity (almost always in top 10 in best places for non-white-males to work), and some other areas.

 

[Jeeebus]

I don't have to open the list to know that my firm isn't on it.

 

[illusion88]

I bet if they made a list 10,000 best companies, my workplace wouldn't be on it.

Turns out I had it all confused with the former Arthur Andersen (disolved with the Enron scandal) vs. Andersen Consulting (it's previous name) debacle. At any rate, I said "wow" because all this time since 2001 I hadn't heard a peep from Accenture which is in my field... I thought they were long gone.

well, we're on here
