  1. I’m always drawn to these articles on LinkedIn and feel that these surveys fail to highlight the benefits of smaller companies. Of course we all want to work at the Google’s and Deloitte’s of the world. However, with my work experience in both small and large companies, I have seen most of my job satisfaction in smaller business environments. Large companies are exciting and busy, but left me feeling un-involved and unable to gain the responsibilities I was eagerly awaiting. However, in my small work environments I has access to my executives, allowing me to ask questions and be involved in projects and even decision-making. I was able to take on more individual tasks and responsibilities, and get noticed which pushed me to work harder and deliver more. So, my question is…when will these surveys include the smaller companies that do a lot of great work and offer greater career opportunities, too?

  2. The top employers would all be companies I would want to work for. I have experienced each of their services, and would enjoy seeing how it works from their points of view rather than from a consumer point of view. These are also well-known companies, so it makes sense that others are familiar with their services and want to work for such successful companies.
