Fortune's Best Companies to Work For in 2007

Fortune's Best Companies to Work For in 2007

2007 brought in a new number one on the list of Fortune magazine’s best companies to work for. Google offers their employees up to 20% of their work time to dedicate to independent projects, onsite gyms, and an environment like no other where pets come to work with their owners and employees don’t rush out of work at quitting time. Other exceptional benefits the top companies on this year’s list offer include a six week paid sabbatical for 6 years of work, free in house childcare, gas gift cards to offset rising gas prices, and 9% bonuses.
