“No time for losers ‘Cause we are the champions – of the world” – Freddie Mercury
We all need to work (unless you are independently wealthy). So why not make work a great experience? Why not provide benefits that make people feel good about getting up every morning and going to work? The companies on the “Best List” have a common theme. They all recognize that, while having a great product is important (otherwise they would not be in business), treating your employees as your most important asset is key to success. As you do your research to find the best company for you, why not consider the best to work for? The companies listed today range from entertainment to consulting and technology. There were more than 1,000 career opportunities across these companies.
- DreamWorks Animation SKG – New to the list last year (at number 47), DreamWorks has moved up to number 6 this year. Their website and career page have amazing animation (as you would expect from an animation company). Their main career page has three choices: Internships, Jobs and Outreach. Their Outreach program is a partnership with universities for entry level jobs. Clicking on “Jobs” leads to their job openings. Scroll down to see detail on each job and click “more” or “apply here” on any job for additional background with a link to “how to apply”. They do not have a resume post ability, but you can email your resume.
