The 100 Best Places to Work in 2018

The 100 Best Places to Work in 2018 Facebook is the place to be, according to job website Glassdoor’s new list ranking the 100 best companies to work for in 2018. Technology is a recurring theme on the list. Other companies span healthcare, consulting, and retail. Bain Company (No. 2), Google (No. 5), and Apple (No. 84) are the only three employers to score a spot all 10 years that Glassdoor has released the list. Facebook has made an appearance for eight consecutive years. Why are people crazy about Facebook? “What we really see them appreciate most is the company’s mission-driven culture, transparent leadership, and the fact that their work literally impacts the lives of billions of people worldwide.” said Glassdoor CEO Robert Hohman of its crowning achievement. Facebook VP of People Lori Goler, who’s in charge of the company’s global HR organization, says she’s particularly “excited” about leading the Glassdoor list since it’s based on ratings from Facebook’s own employees and reflects its internal culture. “One of the themes in the reviews is people get great feedback here, they get coaching and room to learn and grow,” she said of the reasons Facebook scored so high. “Another theme is the impact every individual can have. Any job really matters. It’s a strength-based organization, so it matters that people are in roles that play to their strengths. When you put those things together and do it at scale, it’s a pretty magical combination.” Goler notes that Facebook goes out of its way to instill a belief in clear, honest communication throughout its ranks, including “training for hard conversations” and weekly QAs led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg. There are 40 newcomers to Glassdoor’s list, among them the video game developer Blizzard Entertainment (No. 28), Kimpton Hotels Restaurants (No. 37), T-Mobile (No. 79), and Adidas (No. 93). Even fast food received a glowing endorsement, with In-N-Out Burger hitting No. 4 and Chick-fil-A coming in at No. 72 on the list. Glassdoor compiles its annual Employees’ Choice Awards based on anonymous reviews of companies from current and former employees submitted on its site, which makes it unique among lists like these. Employees are encouraged to share pros and cons of working for their employer, and they rate workplace attributes like career opportunities, compensation and benefits, culture and values, senior management, and work-life balance. Ratings for the list are determined by the quantity, quality, and consistency of reviews in the eligibility timeframe (between November 1, 2016 and October 22, 2017). It might have you thinking about a job switch. If that’s the case, the best news is that Glassdoor has listings of open positions at all the companies.

5 Myths Of Holiday Job Search - Work It Daily

5 Myths Of Holiday Job Search - Work It Daily When people consider the “holiday job search” many will use “The Holiday” as a reason not to look for employment, for they believe no one gets hired during the holidays. I once heard it described as a scene out of Charles Dickens, “A Christmas Carol” where a job seeker is trudging through the snow, pausing now and then to press his face to a window where he sees inside happily employed people celebrating their jobs. Sadly, he ends up a sidewalk vendor standing knee-deep in snow selling apples. It is my experience as an executive and consultant in the career marketing business for 25 years the image he might see would be job seekers celebrating the jobs they landed during the holidays! I have found December was a very stressful month. Not because “nobody hires in December, but because there was a short window of opportunity and we needed to be prepared when it opened. One company executive from a prominent Boston financial firm said this: “If I want to get great talent I’ll wait till right after the holidays and entice them with signing on before the 1st when I can grandfather them in before the new budgets are enacted.” You see, while the job seeker is whining “where are all the jobs” the employer is whining “where are the good people” and when the two meet it’s a great chemistry. It’s no exaggeration to say execs often make job offers during the holidays and come in to work on a non-holiday to do the paperwork so an employee could start January 2! Furthermore, since most job seekers do not believe they can succeed during the holidays there are much fewer people looking and consequently a higher percentage of job seekers find positions during that time than during other times of the year â€" it stands to reason. If someone advises you to take the month off, don’t listen. Let them take it off and there will be one less person competing. Along with the misconception or fallacy that “nobody hires in December,” I’ve listed for you some other fallacies, which like myths are misleading if you take them for real. Consider the following: Myth 1: Nobody hires in December. As I described above, December can be more hectic for the job seeker for the window shuts quickly, but it's still a month employees are being paid to work. There is a also a sense of urgency among companies to meet budget deadlines, to spend money before the year ends, and fill recruitment needs with the money before it’s gone…all very good for the job seeker. Too, executive recruiters are paid a higher percentage of commission towards the end of the year which helps job seekers. Finally there are always those strong companies that want to start off the New Year with a bang! That could mean “juicing up” their sales forces or other teams; and once more, opportunities for the job seeker. Myth 2: You won't find good jobs in December. You're just as likely to find the job you really want in December as in any other month. One reason is because you won't have as much competition, as I mentioned before, because so many people believe there are no jobs or no good jobs. It's a perfect time for you to be out there. Consider too, that because the holidays are filled with fun and parties, people tend to be more relaxed. It’s all part of feeling the good cheer of the season. And since employed people are still on the job during the holiday, you are likely to find networking with them easier. When you get in to see them they are more open and generous. Networking during the holidays is easier also because holiday events present opportunities you can use to your advantage. You can network at parties, your children's school, among your community, with you church, synagogue or other congregations. Myth 3: Nothing ever happens between Thanksgiving and the third week of January. WRONG! If true, why do most recruiters advise job candidates to be flexible in scheduling interviews and meetings around the holidays and to avoid taking week-long trips during the holidays? I mentioned in my introduction the executive from a prominent Boston Firm. Right after the holidays, she'd give candidates incentives to be on board by January 2. She would ask for them to meet (anywhere of their choosing) on New Year’s Eve day and the next day, her finalist was on board. She would find an hour sometime on New Year’s Day to get into her office and have all the paperwork ready for the next day. Myth 4: Use December to plan your search and be ready to hit the market after the first of the year. Companies needs may be cyclical or seasonal but if there is a need thy address it nonetheless. If a company has a need, the hiring manager doesn’t care whether it's January or December. The focus isn’t on the month, it’s on the need. Also, most companies end their fiscal year with the calendar year. The company will fill needs in December they may anticipate for January simply because of budgetary preferences â€" interview in December in order to hire early in January. Myth 5: Even if an employer may have an opening, many hiring manager are tied up with budgets, deadlines and family and are hard to find. Although the interviewing process can be slower during the holidays because of the number of days people are out of the office, it doesn’t come to a halt. Remember, the early bird catches the worm. Companies will be aggressive still - winners are always competing. Departments are always covered and teams are continually moving forward. Despite holiday vacations and days off, winning companies do not quit. Nonetheless, you need to remain flexible because hiring managers are in and out of town and there are company parties, personal time and other holiday activities. You may have to visit a company three or four times to meet key players and may have to meet at odd times and at different places. Job candidates need to make sure they'll be available. So, my advice is to keep on keeping on. It has been my experience this last week in December may be the best time for all the reasons above and more; and may even stretch to the third week of January. It’s after then for certain all you job seeking competitors will be back into it. It’s also about the third week in January all newspapers, online and off, announce their “Big Help” want ads â€" ever notice that? Many companies put off hiring for the New Year till the fourth-quarter and those who haven’t yet filled positions are up against the gun, which is good news for the job seeker. Too, despite all the deadlines and parties, hiring managers are still reachable and what’s more, they may be in a better-than-usual mood when you find them due to the holiday season. Since fewer people job hunt this time of year (the Classifieds seem to mark mid-January as the new start) there’s less competition now and the couple few weeks to follow. These are all good reasons to keep on k eeping on!
