Company Culture

This past week we had a presentation on company culture. Company culture is a really important part of the workplace. It has a huge impact on the day to day experience of working at a job. To learn a little more about this topic I decided to look into different companies that are known to have really positive company cultures. I found an article from entrepreneur.com that says that the following 10 companies have the best culture. 

10. Adobe

9. Facebook

8. REI

7. Google

6. Squarespace

5. Chevron

4. Twitter

3. Southwest Airlines

2. Warby Parker

1.  Zappos

It was interesting to read about these different companies and learn about why they have such good company cultures. My favorite to read about was Zappos, the #1 on the list. One thing that makes their company culture so strong is that they really focus on hiring people who fit their company. They are very focused on having employees that believe in the companies values and they hire for fit. It was interesting to read that if they hire an employee and the employee decides the job is not for them, they will give the employee $2,000 to quit within the first 2 weeks. This really shows their focus on having employees that align with their values. 

Another interesting thing to note is that none of these companies are healthcare companies. Not sure why that is, or if its just a coincidence. 

I have attached the article below.
