Free gourmet food, haircuts and laundry service for its employees, among
many other perks, have made internet giant Google the No. 1 place to work for
the eighth time in 11 years. The new version of Fortune's Best Companies to
Work For features 12 companies that have made the ranking every year since
the list began 20 years ago, including Publix, REI and Goldman Sachs.
Helping Google to retain its top-of-the heap ranking was its move to increase
parental leave after company executives learned that mothers were leaving at
higher rates. And Fortune says of the company culture: "Town halls held by
black Googlers and allies, support for transgender workers, and unconscious-
bias workshops (already attended by more than 70% of staff) help foster what
employees say is a 'safe and inclusive' workplace at this hive of high
performers."
Methodology
To identify the 100 Best Companies to Work For, each year Fortune partners
with Great Place to Work to conduct the most extensive employee survey in
corporate America, with feedback from more than 230,000 people. Each
company's score is based on Trust Index survey feedback from a random
sample of employees. People anonymously assess their workplace, including
the quality of their leaders, support for their personal and professional lives
and their relationships with colleagues. Survey results are compared with peer
organizations of like size and complexity and are highly reliable statistically. In
addition, Great Place to Work scores a Culture Audit management
questionnaire from each company, which reports details such as
compensation and benefits, hiring practices, recognition, training and
diversity programs.
