Who Wants to Work Where? SurveyMonkey and Fortune Team Up to Determine America’s Favorite Employers
In our dramatically divided days, I may not be calming the culture clash by asserting that Trump voters and Clinton voters can’t even agree on which companies have the most positive impact on the U.S., but it’s true.
Well, sort of: There is some overlap, but the lists are far from identical.
What I’m talking about is a new survey from SurveyMonkey and Fortune that aimed to find out which companies people see as America’s top employers. Survey participants were asked to rank organizations according to their positive and negative impacts on the country, employer appeal, willingness to change in pursuit of success, customer care, and other criteria. Check out some of the results below:
