The Best Place to Work For..


Now seriously.. what makes a company the best place to work for? Is yours considered one?

What do you need from a company to make you decide this is the one, this is the place I want to grow old with! Is it the huge pay? The ability to give you excitement by giving you challenges you thought you won't be able to tackle before? The environment, the people you spent time with more than your children? The overseas trainings (they promised at the interview) for your personal and professional development? Or the Bosses? *Yeah right!*

I guess it depends on your priority right now, what are you looking for currently.. and it may change, it will! Mind you!

The reason I am thinking of it because I was wondering why some of my colleagues (if not most of them) decided to quit and moved to other companies? I'm not trying to brag, but my company is  currently #8 of Fortune Best Companies to Work For!! Wow! If that does not tell you what a great company this is, I don't know what does?!

So why were they leaving then? What makes a company deserted by its employees? And even sometimes some of them are the brightest and the highest potential ever! How about we change the perspective to: What makes it NOT the best place to work for? Then you can go along the list again.. in the opposite way of course.

At the end.. it goes back to each individual. The decision will be subjective and personal, no matter how objective and professional you're handling it..

Now the question is.. If you know you're in The Best Company to Work For, will you quit your job?

The correct answer is: DEPENDS (sound like economists). What is good for me does not necessarily work for other people, likewise. It depends on individual motivation. What is s/he looking for? Prestige to work for a S&P 500 company? Comp & ben? Career?... I guess when someone always gets excited to go to work every morning, that's the time when s/he can claim s/he works for the best company (on their own criteria).
