Fortune’s 100 best companies to work for list has Microsoft weighing in at #42 with 1% workforce growth and 37, 746 U.S employees. Yahoo made it at #73 with 5,444 employees and a 29% percent increase in workforce growth. Google? Sorry, didn’t make the list.
Other notable tech companies in the top 100 list? Cisco at #25 with 8% workforce increase and 26,644 employees. Network Appliance #27 with 2,712 U.S employees and 26% increase. Wholesale Electronics and office equipment provider CDW ranks #34. Intuit is just a notch below Microsoft at #43 and up from 64 place in 2005.
Wonder what kept Google out of this list? (see comments) I’ve heard the food is great there. And the stock options? We know those have been great. Any surprises on or off this list to you?
Update 7:04pm PST: Changed the title to “Google ineligible” thanks to Hunter pointing out that they were in the comments below.
Google was not yet eligible per a note in the article - min seven years of existence as of March 2005 deadline. Google will be eligible for the next survey.
