Cisco
- Information Technology
- San Jose, CA, US
What employees are saying
The attention that the executive team pays to the health and welfare of the surrounding community is extraordinary. Company leadership works to ensure that the company is an active member of the communities in which we operate and are quick to provide resources to support the most vulnerable. I also am heartened by our CEO's focus on social justice issues, specificly those in support of the Black community. Before it became en vogue to do so, he was vested in listening and taking authentic strategic, meaningful actions.

salesforce.com
- Information Technology
- San Francisco, CA, US
What employees are saying
During this pandemic, our company has shown its true colors. What the executive team has done for our communities and our country is outstanding and it makes me SO grateful every day. In fact, my employee is on the WINDforce employee group and asked our executive team if they could consider sending a large amount of PPE to a Native American tribe and guess what? The next day, they did.

Hilton
- Hospitality
- McLean, VA, US
What employees are saying
I can list a lot of unique benefits that are offered by Hilton - Go Hilton travel program, ESPP, Back up care, mental wellness resources and so on. But this year really brought to forefront why Hilton is such a special place. Even in a year that our industry took an unprecedented hit from the pandemic and that we had to make some tough decisions about furloughing or letting go of some of our Team Members, all the actions were accompanied by tremendous hospitality, dignity and compassion. Whether it was extending their Go Hilton eligibility and reservations that would normally be cancelled or maintaining their Honors program longer than normal, or accelerating the preferred treatment that long tenure Team Members get on their unvested equity - each decision was made to do the best company could to help people in crisis. Equally significant was how leaders showed up during this year, enhancing their communications, showing support and empathy, not being shy of being vulnerable in front of others. Every company can be good in good years. Great companies like Hilton show what greatness is in crisis.

Wegmans Food Markets, Inc.
- Retail
- Rochester, NY, US
What employees are saying
What makes Wegmans a great place to work are the employees going the extra mile to help our customers and communities, especially during the pandemic where we all had to come together and put in extra effort to help customers and the communities we serve get through uncertain times. It wasn't just employees stocking empty shelfs, doing extra cleaning and sanitizing around the store, and helping in other departments. It was a combination of those things that helped us get through this pandemic and will continue to get through these uncertain times. I also was very thankful for the ability to take the COVID job protected leave as I was very concerned about the risk being infected as I have two older parents in my house who could be at risk. Thank you for doing your best to keep us safe during the pandemic.

Rocket Companies
- Real Estate
- Detroit, MI, US
What employees are saying
The first unique part about being with this company is the level of support we get here. Instead of getting laid off or being forced to still go to work during the pandemic, the company has gone out of their way early on to send all of us home with equipment to be able to work from home and keep our jobs. My director is always extremely helpful when I need him, the support my team provides as well is amazing. Though I have learned a lot by working from home, I feel that I'm still fully supported even without my team members right next to my side physically. The second unique part about this company itself is how much we give back to the community. I haven't seen any other business do quite what QL has. Between donating, going out in the community to give back, donating our resources so that way we can help in any way we can during the pandemic, it is truly inspiring and has motivated me to give back much more than I normally would have.

UKG
- Information Technology
- Lowell, MA, US
What employees are saying
Our approach to the pandemic was phenomenal. Management did forecasting far further out than I would have expected with a worst case scenario in mind and identified ways to make sure everyone could keep their jobs without salary reductions, then they shared those projections and committed to them. There has been clear communication every step of the way during these scary times, so I've never had to worry about my personal finances. What's more, they have made it clear that taking care of our families first is the number one priority and have provided ample time to help out as needs at home have increased, including providing resources to give kids at home camp experiences and craft supplies. None of my friends have had the kind of experience I have had the last 8 months with a caring, compassionate employer. There was some trepidation as Ultimate and Kronos merged to make UKG, but all of those fears have been unfounded and this company is, if anything, more committed to putting people first.

Texas Health Resources, Inc.
- Health Care
- Arlington, TX, US
What employees are saying
They listen to everyone’s ideas and incorporate those they can. During COVID-19 they made sure we had PPE and encouraged us to use it to stay safe. They used to keep us all working when the pandemic census was low. They explain the whys of difficult decisions and listen to input. I practice to the full extent of my license. I am encouraged and supported but not micromanaged.

Camden Property Trust
- Real Estate
- Houston, TX, US
What employees are saying
Just take the Pandemic for example. Not only did Camden take swift action to ensure the safety of all employees by creating avenues to work remotely from home, but they sent every employee an abundance of safety supplies including masks and antiseptic wipes. Then they created a relief fund for employees who may be dealing with extraneous circumstances such as a spouse who lost a job or paying for child care. But no, they did not stop there. They then created a fund of $10 million dollars to help residents living in our communities with financial assistance. Seriously? Who does that? Camden does! They have always cared for others and do so without an agenda.

Capital One
- Financial Services & Insurance
- McLean, VA, US
What employees are saying
CapitalOne has great benefits and a focus on using new technologies to automate our IT infrastructure and deploy services in the cloud. This is a good software development job and initially that was all I thought of it. But during the Covid-19 crisis this company not only took care of employees, but also paid third-party contractors who couldn't come to our closed offices and worked in the company cafeteria, security, and janitorial services. The company also made special allowances for customers who lost their jobs and loved ones to the pandemic. The CEO and management show that they care about people with their actions. They have carefully built this company up, and used the strength of the business to help others when they can. Sure, it is just a bank, but it is run by people who haven't lost sight of the people in it or the people who are our customers.

American Express
- Financial Services & Insurance
- New York, NY, US
What employees are saying
I love being a part of #teamamex. The leadership team is agile, does the right thing, and communicates a clear vision. I particularly love that Steve [Squeri, CEO] has taken a clear stance to champion inclusion and diversity - with initiatives aimed to promote women, root out unconscious bias, and support the Black community. He's also supported LGBTQ+, voting, and immigrants' rights. He sets the tone and his leadership team and leaders across the enterprise model this behavior. He is unapologetic about it and does not hedge his support - he is all in. I've appreciated being encouraged and able to implement change in my business unit, speak up, and provide my opinion, which is so different from many other companies. The benefits offered support my and my colleagues' needs, and they went the extra mile to ensure we had support during this pandemic - covering not just testing but also treatment of COVID-19. Amex also announced early on that there wouldn't be COVID-related layoffs this year. They say in all the coronavirus memos that our well-being comes first, and that's clear in both their words and actions. Not just the job security and health coverage, but they also expanded benefits and discounts for tutoring, childcare, etc. which is awesome. ... Many of my colleagues have young children at home and it has been difficult to manage their schooling and continued development with work. They've really appreciated and taken advantage of the new offerings and the ability to work flexibly - leaders are really supportive and understanding. I have also participated in the virtual exercise classes and well-being webinars they offer each day - all free! Let alone the stuff we all know - 20 weeks of parental leave and a good PTO pot (that we are actually encouraged to take!).

Intuit Inc.
- Information Technology
- Mountain View, CA, US
What employees are saying
Intuit has been an awesome employer during the COVID-19 pandemic. It established multiple programs to help employees deal with being a caretaker, maintaining a work/life balance and taking care of ourselves and families. They funded our annual incentive program with stock RSUs and bonuses at 100% - and continued to pay the salaries of front-line workers who staff and maintain our facilities - even though they are closed. And to top it off - we're receiving additional days to "recharge" for the whole company - so we can really unplug and not feel like we should be "on" - and none of it decreases our PTO balance. Intuit is a great place to work!

NVIDIA
- Information Technology
- Santa Clara, CA, US
What employees are saying
NVIDIA has always been a unique place. But with the Covid pandemic this has come to light in ways I couldn't even imagine. The pandemic has been a very sad episode of our human history - and Jensen [Huang, CEO] and the leadership team have been one of the few sources of light and inspiration. At least for me. The company-wide emails and actions that were taken are clear examples of what true leaders do. In a few of those emails I would literally have tears in my eyes by the time I finished reading it. Compassion and a clear set of priorities, focused on people not just profit, are what usually make a huge difference. And it is especially true when there is a global pandemic going around. I can't be more proud to be part of NVIDIA. It is not just a job. It is family.

David Weekley Homes
- Construction
- Houston, TX, US
What employees are saying
At the start of the Covid-19 Pandemic, David Weekley Homes responded quickly by coming up with a plan for us, the team members. In the first email we were given three additional PTO days to use between March and December. We were offered 2 weeks pay if we needed to quarantine or got the virus and working from home became an option and highly suggested. A few weeks later another communication was released stating if you were afraid of coming to work or working at all, the company would pay (after we used our PTO) 50% of our pay for a month; if we still didn't feel like returning to work or working from home we were and still are able to be off for really an unlimited time. The company would pay for Health Benefits while the team members was on this leave. If you had to take care of your kids because of home/online schooling you were also able to take this leave. One other way David Weekley Homes showed they care about the team members is if you are a parent and cannot find day care for your children or do not think its safe, if your position allows it, you can work from home until end of August. If you feel, you cannot work 40 hours and you can only work 30 or less, you will not lose your health benefits. Since March the company and Mr. David Weekley have been communicating with us on a very regular basis, be that by email or a video with Mr. Weekley speaking to us. I really don't see how any other company like ours stepped up for its team members and customers to feel safe working here or visiting a model home.

Target Corporation
- Retail
- Minneapolis, MN, US
What employees are saying
Target is one of the most philanthropic companies in the world! One of our beliefs is that we have a moral obligation to humanity - how many companies for profit have that? Not only do we care for each of our team members, we care deeply for each of our guests and our communities.

Marriott International
- Hospitality
- Bethesda, MD, US
What employees are saying
Hands down, the way Marriott took care of their associates during the pandemic was beyond unbelievable! We got hit hard in hospitality, and for as many positions that could be furloughed to be, with a few months of 20% pay and supplemental healthcare pricing extended through as long as it could be offered, meant so much during a very hard time. Marriott even partnered with outside companies that were hiring, both in hourly positions as well as executive positions, and worked with us to ensure we as associates had access and a reference to get a new job / career, if we chose that path. This just really proved the company was going to do all they could to keep the company afloat, but ensure their associates were well taken care of. Communication through the pandemic was also prompt, clear and nothing of importance that would affect our life was kept from us. On furlough, senior leadership called (voluntary) monthly update calls where we could log in and learn what was happening with the company. Our small teams had weekly voluntary team calls to catch up on life. Prior to the Covid era, I was 90% in on my company … during (and now after), I am 1000% all in as I got to see a more personal side of a very large company, and we are overcoming this pandemic as a family. For as large of a company we are, I never once felt I was alone over the last 8 months. Again, hands down the absolute best handling of the situation, keeping associates top of mind and of course, keeping the highest standards of cleanliness in travel.

Hyatt Hotels Corporation
- Hospitality
- Chicago, IL, US
What employees are saying
Due to the pandemic our hotel temporarily suspended operations for 7 months. During this suspension ALL 800 colleagues were kept on furlough status in order to have their health insurance remain active. In addition, all employee premiums for benefits were also 100% covered by the company. And if this wasn't enough, the company also provided two food drives for the colleagues and their families during this unprecedented times.

Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants
- Hospitality
- San Francisco , CA, US
What employees are saying
Kimpton truly goes to bat for its employees and while this has always been apparent in my four years with the company, the last 7 months during the pandemic have truly given them the opportunity to make this known on a mass scale. While we were forced to close almost 100% of our properties back in March (in fact, I work out of a property that is is STILL closed with no solid reopening date in sight) Kimpton quickly went into overdrive to ensure that the teams across the country were taken care of. This massive effort took the following forms, just to name a few: Kimpton immediately partnered with a few large corporations that would need to ramp up on hiring during the crisis, like Amazon and several national grocery brands, on a hiring program that would allow out-of-work Kimptonites to gain employment with these companies WITHOUT EVEN HAVING TO INTERVIEW but simply be hired based on the fact that they were Kimpton employees; leadership coordinated with almost every state's unemployment agencies in order to help laid off team members apply for unemployment immediately as well as find funds, loans, charities that would be able to assist our team members during this time of need; and most dear to my heart, Kimpton asserted from early on to the owners of each and every property/restaurant that there were certain non-negotiable positions at every property that were to be maintained despite closures. I've worked in the industry for over 15 years and have friends/former colleagues scattered across the country and not one of their hotel management companies stood up to ownership on their behalf to make these types of assertions. When you ask if Kimpton has my back, if I'm proud to work here, and if they are truly a great place to work my answer is clear and concise- YES!!!

Adobe Systems Incorporated
- Information Technology
- San Jose, CA, US
What employees are saying
The company genuinely cares about the wellbeing of its employees. It's never been more apparent as it is now during this global pandemic. I feel like Adobe has been very transparent with its employees and has done an awesome job making informed decisions and pivoting when needed. It started with the quick shift to WFH for the safety and health of employees before many other companies decided to do so and before the shelter in place order in the Bay Area was implemented. Adobe has halted hiring to avoid layoffs during covid-19 and that gives employees a sense of security during this time when so many are struggling financially. Also, receiving emergency alerts from GSOC assures me that Adobe cares about my personal safety. All the trainings on emotional wellbeing and coping during this time shows that Adobe cares about our mental health. Lastly, the timely messages we receive from Shantanu [Narayen, CEO] regarding current events and how we are to react and behave as Adobe employees is an awesome example of his incredible leadership. In a time of uncertainty, stress, and fear, I feel fortunate to be an Adobe employee.

Northwell Health
- Health Care
- New Hyde Park, NY, US
What employees are saying
I strongly believe that a unique quality about this company is the honest leadership. During the pandemic, we have been given truthful, up-to-date information on COVID-19 and were never kept in the dark. I also feel that Northwell has amazing leadership that are approachable and always willing to listen to their employees' issues or problems and help in getting them resolved. Another unique quality, and I will speak for my particular department, is that it is a GREAT environment to work in. Our team is filled with team players always willing to lend a helping hand. This helps to create a fun and energetic environment when coming to work.

Edward Jones
- Financial Services & Insurance
- St. Louis , MO, US
What employees are saying
This company has been truly loyal and committed to their employees over all the years I have worked here. 2020 has been an unprecedented year for disasters/pandemics. Edward Jones has FULLY SUPPORTED their employees! They have offered additional PAID personal days for those who have needed it. They moved quickly to offer work from home solutions not only for the main campuses, but for the branches as well. They have helped those in financial need, those with physical health needs, those with mental health needs and those with family support challenges. They were creative in finding ways to keep us safe, informed, connected, supported and appreciated. This company is FAMILY!

Bank of America
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Charlotte, NC, US
What employees are saying
Brian [Moynihan, CEO]'s commitment to no layoffs during 2020 as the pandemic worsened has given everyone I've spoken with huge peace of mind. That's a massive commitment to make during a time of uncertainty and says far more about the bank's concern for all of us as employees than any words. I went into the year with huge gratitude to the Bank and my manager for their assistance through tough times. The crisis, and seeing how proactive the bank was in managing the practical and caring side of the response, the conversations following George Floyd's death, and the commitments we've made to our communities all speak volumes about not only doing our jobs well, but doing the right thing. I'm immensely proud to work for this company.

Perkins Coie LLP
- Professional Services
- Seattle, WA, US
What employees are saying
Perkins responded incredibly well to the Covid-19 pandemic. The firm transitioned to remote working in just 10 days and provided all employees, regardless of their role in the company, any and all resources needed to work from home and cope with the emotional stress of these difficult months. For example, the firm sent monitors, laptops, mouses, keyboards, and video cameras directly to households, provided Emergency Care Time we can use to our discretion to tend to health/childcare needs, allowed employees to take home anything from the office (such as a desk chair), and rolled-out many additional benefits, such as a free subscription to Headspace (the meditation app) to further promote wellness during this stressful time. Our management was transparent in the firm's response, next steps, and the general state of the firm. We have many opportunities to virtually connect with co-workers through happy hours and more frequent staff meetings. I feel like all my concerns have been addressed and the firm truly cares for employees' day-to-day happiness, safety, and mental health.

Nugget Market, Inc.
- Retail
- Davis, CA, US
What employees are saying
Given the current situation of health being a major focus of concern, I appreciate deeply the 'Thank you' pay all associates have received during the start of the pandemic. Our CEO has personally extended this pay rate through September where so many other essential businesses have suspended it. Although it is still concerning having so much exposure due to our service to the public, I feel comforted to know that if I get sick I will be taken care of because of the financial stability and amazing benefits the company has always offered. Our company made the decision to require face masks for every guest and associate a FULL month prior to it being a state mandate. We have been diligent to regulate this in order to ensure a safe environment for so many and still excel at world class levels of service! These actions of safety prove that our executive team are protecting ALL of our associates and are constantly looking for ways to make it safer for everyone to be in. If there was any good reason to have Nugget Markets be one of the top 10 on your list, it should be for the protocols in place for being a force in safety for the public. I am proud to be apart of this company that may be small in size, but delivers nothing short of gigantic positive impacts!

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Columbus, OH, US
What employees are saying
I am not usually the "drink the kool-aid" type of person, however I cannot stay quiet here. One of the many things that really stands out and was reconfirmed to me, is that Nationwide TRULY cares about their associates. During such a scary time as the COVID-19 pandemic, they have gone ABOVE and BEYOND to ensure that we as associates had all tools and resources needed to continue doing our jobs, as well as making sure we are all safe and healthy (physically, mentally, emotionally & financially). Frequently hearing from the executives at the top via live stream meetings, Q&A sessions, etc., gave me the reassurance to know that we were not alone. EVERYONE from the top to the bottom is being affected in some way...but no matter what...#WeGotThis. I am truly proud to work for such an amazing company as Nationwide!

Pinnacle Financial Partners
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Nashville, TN, US
What employees are saying
Pinnacle has always been a great place to work. Many companies create values statements and hang them on the wall, but every decision at Pinnacle is driven by our values: Integrity, Fairness, Learning, Partnership, Balance, Discipline and Results. The current pandemic is a perfect example. Our leadership was quick to act when it became clear that COVID-19 had the potential to impact the lives of large numbers of people and our economy. Leadership made the safety and well-being of associates its top priority. Associates have been able to work from home. Even though earnings have been under pressure, no associate has seen a cut in pay, and there have been no layoffs and no furloughs. We have continued to focus on building strong teams and ensuring that associates feel valued and secure. Client safety and soundness became a top priority. When it would be easy to make decisions that affect near-term results, our leadership has focused on sustaining long-term relationships with our clients by ensuring that we treat them fairly and provide sound financial advice in these difficult times. I would not want to work for any other firm.

Red Hat, Inc.
- Information Technology
- Raleigh, NC, US
What employees are saying
Red Hat has done a fantastic job of helping employees feel safe, secure, and connected despite the pandemic. Great care has been given to support not only the health of employees, but our emotional wellbeing as well. Through town halls, company wide emails, and newsletters, we are kept in the loop on how decisions are being made in response to the pandemic. Red Hat started Recharge days - an extra holiday every quarter during the pandemic - to encourage us to log off. This to me is going above and beyond to help out their employees. Additionally, the response from Red Hat to the racial tension has been better than I have ever experienced at a company. Extra care and support was given to my colleagues who are BIPOC. Anti-racism education and diversity & inclusion programs have grown, further demonstrating that Red Hat truly embodies an inclusive organization that values diversity. At a time when we are physically separated, I feel that Red Hat is finding ways to encourage and foster connection. While work looks a lot different today than it did a few months ago, I feel supported and able to do my job remotely without feeling disconnected. Through different online collaboration tools provided by Red Hat, I am in constant contact with my team and didn't lose a beat when my work became home-based. I feel incredibly fortunate to work at Red Hat, and talking with friends and family, I feel that Red Hat is head and shoulders above other companies in benefits, culture, wellbeing, opportunity, and productivity.

SAP America, Inc.
- Information Technology
- Newtown Square, PA, US
What employees are saying
SAP is a socially and morally responsible company. They are quick to update all employees on evolving priorities and practices with regard to global events such as the pandemic and BLM movement. It has been refreshing to see a company respond so quickly and do everything they can to help and make employees feel heard and encourage us to get involved by donating (and offering a match) to non-profits, and volunteering to help. SAP is truly remarkable in adapting to changes and transparency with these larger global issues.

The company is upfront and honest about its plans and why they are making them. I have really appreciated this lately, especially with COVID-19.

It can be easy to be a great company when times are perfect, but they have really shown that they care and are a great company when times are more uncertain.

Leadership focuses on ensuring employees have what we need to be our best; whether that's the benefits package, employee resource groups to celebrate our diversity, or the technology assets that support our ability to work from anywhere. The response to COVID has been amazing. They've rapidly transitioned us to work-from-home with great support for the different situations that each employee faced at home.

Baird
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Milwaukee, WI, US
What employees are saying
I have been really impressed with how Baird has responded to the COVID-19 pandemic. We were able to quickly move to a work-from-home atmosphere with a ton of support. A lot of us already had the necessary equipment and were prepared because we already practiced working from home for years in preparation for something like this. Even with the state's "Safer at Home" orders being lifted, Baird is taking a very conservative stance on returning to the workplace and I know that we will not be going back any time soon. They have strict guidelines and milestones that need to be met for us to safely return to the office. Our Executive team is putting their associate's health as priority number one and that is extremely important to me. I am very proud to work for Baird.

I have never been part of a company or organization that stays so true to its word and values. They create a great work environment while treating their employees and customers with integrity and compassion. They have a foundation and are always doing wonderful things for the community. Just recently they gave over a million dollars to help support small local businesses and people who were struggling because of the COVID-19 situation. That's just one example of the many amazing things they do here at Veterans United Home Loans. I am so proud to be a part of this team.

The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated
- Hospitality
- Calabasas Hills, CA, US
What employees are saying
This company is very unique in the way it dealt with the coronavirus epidemic. For starters, they provided everyone with a free meal every day throughout our period of being furloughed. They provided us with home essentials, such as toilet paper, soap, shampoo, snacks, etc., as well as non-essentials, such as games, toys, cards, and other fun things to pass by the time of quarantine. They offered help applying for unemployment as well as providing us with resources to find other temporary jobs during the shutdown. The Cheesecake Factory has done so much more during this time of a new age, as well as in the past.

CarMax
- Retail
- Richmond, VA, US
What employees are saying
CarMax offered multiple options for employees with children who may have difficulties working full time as many schools have converted to virtual learning. ... During the height of the pandemic when a large number of our stores were closed or operating at limited capacity, we were forced to furlough some of our associates. While this is never ideal, I appreciated that the executives took a pay cut and the Board of Trustees did not receive any compensation. CarMax paid all of the health insurance costs for furloughed associates during this time. Management also worked really hard to bring associates back quickly and some were brought back within two weeks. It just showed how seriously they took the decision and how much the associates are truly valued by CarMax.

Synchrony
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Stamford, CT, US
What employees are saying
The Executive Leadership team has done a superb job of handling the dynamic environment created from the Coronavirus pandemic. They had the foresight to send employees home early, even before state governments recognized the need for social distancing. They have been communicating frequently and transparently about how the business is doing, how they're working to keep employees safe and the additional benefits they've added for childcare, mental and emotional health, etc. Synchrony Summer Camp was an initiative that was put together very quickly to provide working parents with support for their children over the summer knowing that parents would be working virtually and many households would be sheltering in place due to the pandemic. It was a brilliant idea and executed beautifully, utilizing older children as camp counselors for the younger children. My children loved the program and were excited to do science experiements, yoga, learn new skills, etc. It was such a nice benefit and demonstrated how thoughtful Senior Leadership was about the struggles of their employees who are working parents. Synchrony's culture is beautifully unique, it's hard to describe it, it's something you just feel, it feels like family. You are surrounded by people who truly care about you as a person and we're working together toward a common purpose that we all believe in. You see this from the top down.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
- Professional Services
- New York, NY, US
What employees are saying
Over the years, PwC has been agile and thoughtful in responding to unforeseen developments and change, whether economical, regulatory, or environmental. In 2020, the Company surpassed all my expectations in responding to the COVID pandemic. Leadership was clear in both messaging AND ACTIONS that top priorities were employee safety, avoiding layoffs, and promoting well-being. There were frequent webcasts to keep all of us updated, provide ongoing guidance on working virtually, and team together. This frequent connection allowed us to not only address Firm matters, but to band together on other developments in our nation needing our involvement and passion - such as racial injustice. I have always been proud to work at PwC - but never more so than in 2020.

KPMG LLP
- Professional Services
- New York, NY, US
What employees are saying
The firm has done an amazing job at adapting to recent health and social issues that are at the forefront of society. With the pandemic, leadership communicated early and often, acted in a timely manner to prevent staff from exposure, implemented a program for individuals to take equipment to their home offices, and asked employees about their thoughts on returning to the office. While working from home, communication has increased via meetings and all hands calls to promote a sense of connection and understanding about firm updates. I am confident that when the offices do reopen, leadership will ensure that it is as safe as possible and will continue to allow individuals and teams to work from home if they desire. With the recent social justice movement, leadership, all the way to the Chairman and CEO, expressed that recent events did not align to our firm's core values. My local leadership set up a call with all of the black employees within our practice, including myself, and allowed us to tell our stories and ask questions about how we make our firm and the community a more accepting, understanding, and just place. It was a powerful session with both black partners and employees expressing sometimes painful or hard stories to tell. After the session, leadership that identified as allies of the movement reached out to their staff to allow them to express themselves, share their feelings, and discuss how we can better support one another. It was my proudest moment to be a member at the firm and KPMG continues to commit to social justice and equality movements.

What employees are saying
Their immediate response to the pandemic to enable their near total employee population to work from home and provide all the tools and equipment needed to do their job remotely [makes this a great place to work]. That is over 30,000 people fully enabled over a few weeks time. They modified their bonus / gainshare policy to pay out quarterly rather than the end of year in order to provide funds for those with job losses within their families. I've worked or consulted in computer systems with a half dozen Fortune 3000 companies in heavy manufacturing, food processing, mining and banking over a [40+ year] career, and I would rate this, my current employer as, by far, the best place I've ever worked.

What employees are saying
As a whole, our firm has been super supportive throughout the pandemic. Rather than lay off people for fear of decreased revenue, our leadership has decided to eliminate bonuses and other expenses so that we can keep people on the payroll. And they've encouraged our global EY community to do what we can to help others through these tough times - from individuals making masks to donate to first responders to coordinated group efforts to make donations to helping government agencies manage the testing and tracing of those affected with COVID. I feel our firm and our people care about each other and the broader global community.

I think one of the best aspects of Publix is our commitment to the communities around us. To be recognized as a Global Leader for United Way, while only operating in 7 states in one county is truly amazing. The community involvement continues with the around the clock work that Publix does to make sure our stores are stocked and operable during/after crisis situations, such as COVID-19 pandemic or natural disasters like hurricanes. To work for a company that not only cares about you as a person, but also the community as a whole, is empowering.

You can tell the thought and concern from upper management as we transitioned back into the field and office.

This company truly puts its people first, even during a pandemic. I have never felt more supported and cared for by an employer in my life. Atlassian has offered programs and resources focused on mental health and burnout. They've offered allowances to make sure WFH set up is solid if a person is normally in an office. We've reimagined where teams need to be to work well together. We've encouraged people to take time away beyond what people may have as a normal amount of vacation time, to recharge from COVID impacts. We've acknowledged that not all people have the same impacts from COVID and have adjusted bonus eligibility accordingly. Our Workplace Experience Team has created incredible opportunities for all employees to engage remotely in classes, experiences, etc. Teams are rallying together to support each other. I've never been more proud to be an Atlassian.

We quickly transitioned to work-from-home as covid started to become a risk, and management ultimately decided to open up long term work-from-home to most positions post-COVID. I appreciate that have the option to move almost anywhere in the US to work, even if it isn't near a Zillow office. This enabled me to move a little further out from Seattle, to an environment that is much more conducive to work-from-home for me.

During the height of COVID-19, when the state of Ohio prevented any elective surgeries, OhioHealth took a big hit financially. All healthcare systems did. They pledged to keep every associate whole during that time, and they did. From redeploying surgical scrub techs to other clinical areas and moving those in continuing education to field HR calls, every associate still got their full paycheck. That made me very proud to work for OhioHealth.

What employees are saying
Regeneron went out of its way during this pandemic to make sure everyone was safe and had a fair shake at things. It's not easy to motivate people to go into work while keeping half of the company at home to prevent exposure, but I think through Regeneron's strong messaging and communication we were all able to come together and accomplish something great. I was also impressed by their handling of the BLM movement. As an African American male its nice to know that I work for a company that really puts its money where its mouth is regarding making changes in underserved communities. And, very importantly, it maintains a work environment where I don't feel like I'm being treated like a child or pitied. It takes extremely professional, and very talented leadership to create such an environment.

During the first few months of the Minnesota work from home order, the company gave unlimited APL to employees who did not have access to work from home, lost access to their childcare, etc. Management was also unbelievably understanding of those of us working from home with children, accommodating alternative schedules, reduced workload if needed, etc. It was such a relief as I worked to care for my children, worried about a worldwide pandemic and even worried about where our next roll of toilet paper would come from, that I did NOT have to worry about my job going away. I'm a loyal employee for life.

American Fidelity Assurance Company
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Oklahoma City, OK, US
What employees are saying
There's several things about our company that make it a great place to work that I mention each year. And those are all still true. But management's approach and handling of the Covid-19 Pandemic has probably earned them a lifetime Most Excellent Place to Work in my books. Communication has been outstanding. Even though there were a lot of unknowns and uncertainty, executive management communicated what they were thinking/considering. They acknowledged the uncertainties, but reassured us that our work-from-home model was sustainable and that AFA would be extremely conservative/cautious in bringing folks back in the office. That alone was an immeasurable comfort; especially when compared with stories from family and friends, the differences were night and day. Management had weekly communication videos that included fairly deep-dives regarding the financial impact and sales operational adjustments which were implemented and I learned things about our company/products that I hadn't previously picked up in my 20+ years with the company. They were outstanding presentations which acknowledged the uncertainties and challenges we faced, but reassuring us of AFA's sustainability and plans if things deteriorated. Additionally, I heard that AFA continued to pay some of our 3rd party contractors, specifically our cafeteria workers (at The Grill), during the pandemic. Obviously The Grill was shutdown when everyone began working from home. My logical thought would be those 'colleagues' would have to rely on their company's policies regarding their continued pay. But, AFA management treated them as Colleagues and continued pay them to some level which astounded me. Management put the well-being of those 'colleagues' over profits and absolutely did the 'right thing' instead of looking at the bottom line. They've also came up with several creative ways to continue celebrations/activities that would have normally occur in the office. I'm not certain how our HR and Creative Services teams are keeping up with all the work/materials they've put out since the Pandemic. The video presentations have been fun and entertaining. And it seems like almost half of the communications regarded the well-being, mental/physical health of our workforce. It's been much appreciated. Then finally, AFA's continued involvement and support of our community during the pandemic has been stellar. I've always been extremely proud of our community support programs. They've simply stepped it up a couple of levels since the pandemic which has been gratifying.

What employees are saying
When Bain says it is a people first company, it means it. It has shown me that in the big and small ways over the almost nine years I have worked here. ... When the pandemic hit, the company immediately made clear that every person's job was safe and that the executive team would take the pay hits required if the business suffered--layoffs were not coming and people could rest easy. The company invested heavily to ensure we had the personal capacity to continue working during the time, and made sure every employee had a chance to openly discuss and solution their individual needs. When Black Lives Matter erupted, the company made clear that they had not done enough and would try harder and do better. They put their money and the actions ahead of their words, and I believe handled it gracefully and powerfully. Leadership lives and breathes our operating principle to be open, honest, and direct. I always feel like I know where I stand and where the firm stands, and I trust them to be on the right side of history and own up to it when they are not.

The organization has demonstrated generosity in a variety of ways to support the employees and community, e.g., provided equipment and $$$ to work from home, continued to pay contracted workers, extended the notification for displaced workers from 60-90 days for ongoing restructuring, donating equipment and $$$ to communities in need during the pandemic. The Executive Team has been very thoughtful about ensuring that employees and customers are not at risk of COVID-19 exposure by creating a phased in approach to return to the work campus and clear processes to minimize risk to employees and customers as we transition into new ways of working post-pandemic.

The company had a great plan during the pandemic. As an essential employee that has to be on site, I was very happy with how the company responded. They had the cafeteria provide boxed lunches for us (which kept food service personnel working) since the cafe was closed and they staggered personnel and rotated days so there was limited contact. Only employees with business in our building are allowed to enter. Extra safety precautions were put in place; such as extra wipes, facemasks, and temperature checks. Non-essential employees worked from home and the company supplied extra equipment if they needed it. Now all employees are back, and they still maintain safety precautions. There is even covid testing on site.

The company, from management on down, understands the concept, "take care of your workers and they'll take care of your customers/members." The management team works hard to ensure front-line reps have a voice. A lot of the changes have come from the contact center floor directly from reps who take calls. The health coverage is phenomenal. They have held down insurance costs, year after year, provided us with in-house help like wellness and fitness centers as well as have generous time off windows. The pay is wonderful. Recognition comes from multiple management levels for both big and small accomplishments. There are a multitude of ways to award and reward individuals as well as teams and company. And we have a way of recognizing co-workers that allows those compliments to be part of their record and considered during reviews and awards. ... We know we are appreciated every day. That's huge.

Citrix Systems, Inc.
- Information Technology
- Fort Lauderdale, FL, US
What employees are saying
The biggest thing that makes Citrix the best place to work, is how quickly we have shifted to a fully remote workforce since the pandemic began back in March and the stay at home orders were implemented. From the $1,000 bonus to outfit my home office, to the "David Henshall check in's" with the company with his videos, and calls with the team, and the multiple resources and cash donated to the communities in which we all work, and our ELT really taking ownership on employee well-being - there isn't lip service on Work-Life balance/integration, we're all living this as Citrites. I have worked for a few large technology companies prior to Citrix. I've never been more proud of where I work and what this company is doing across the board, and what it has done prior to the pandemic in terms of 'employee experience'. I was most impressed when we had the company wide "Daring Dialogue" where David & Donna/ELT lead a conversation on race in the wake of the George Floyd video. We took two hours out of our day for a very raw and honest discussion. I was impressed that this was important to the company and that me, a mixed-race black employee, got to take part in something that was timely, and taken seriously. Citrix cares about its employees, ALL of their employees.

I am really proud to work at a place that cares this much about what is happening in the world around them. The company's response to the pandemic has been another example of how much they care about their employees. Multiple surveys and meetings have given everyone a voice in what is happening with their place of work (home vs office) and work schedules. The owners reduced their own pay so that they would not have to do pay cuts. They have set up many ways for employees to get support through flexible work schedule options, lines to call for mental health issues, and management is genuinely open to directing people to the right resources in these tough times.

It is wonderful to work with a company that actually cares about their employees regardless of their position. Dealing with the Covid-19 situation, Orrick's actions have shown it's true colors - WE are a family, WE are in this together and WE will get through this together. Orrick has tried to keep all of their employees informed every step of the way and ease the uncertainty and anxiety created by this pandemic. Orrick has worked to avoid lay-offs at every level by having everyone share the financial hardships as well as offering financial benefits (tax benefits and working from home monthly stipends) whenever possible. When the financial strain was over, Orrick returned everyone to the pre-Covid-19 compensation levels. Orrick is always trying to help their members find a balance between work and home life and dealing with any stresses that result. Orrick offers virtual health exams as well as meditations and relaxation exercises - office chair yoga helps stretch the stress away. This racially turbulent time has taken a toll on our team members and Orrick has reached out and offered discussion and encouragement through speakers as well as offering up to 3 days of paid time off to deal with anxiety and unease.

I routinely get the sense this company promotes people and systems that show they care about employees' well-being and community involvement. During the last 7+ months of the pandemic, they recognized that employees have not been able to schedule as much time off due to childcare and family issues, and they added 4 company-wide holidays to the calendar year. They've gone out of their way to ensure employees have additional budget to set up home office space and pay for a portion of internet expenses. Management and HR regularly emphasize that there are no plans to reduce staffing due to the pandemic. I feel they've done an extraordinary job at balancing business needs with keeping employees safe, healthy, and feeling cared-for.

Ryan, LLC

What employees are saying
Our leadership has taken the COVID pandemic as an opportunity to grow and innovate the way we operate. When we were asked to begin working from home there was a question on one of our team talks about how administrative assistants, who have always had a strong need to work from the office, would be able to perform their duties remotely. Brint [Ryan, Chairman and CEO] didn't skip a beat in his response in saying the COVID pandemic would be an opportunity to figure out a way to allow people in those, and similar, positions to work effectively remotely. He challenged the leaders of employees in those positions to figure out how to make it work This is unique from so many other companies my peers work for where they neither feel comfortable with the "new normal" operations procedures or secure in their employment since the pandemic hit. Ryan, and Brint especially, know how to make lemonade out of lemons.

Atlantic Health System
- Health Care
- Morristown, NJ, US
What employees are saying
I also want to give incredible kudos to the leadership of this healthcare company and to my hospital in particular regarding their management of the COVID crisis. Like many greater New York/New Jersey healthcare systems, we were overwhelmed with very sick patients in a very short period of time. It was a testament to excellent leadership (at all levels including the medical staff level), that were able to pivot almost overnight and shut down services and open up new venues of care to facilitate the needs of our community. And this was done essentially with internal resources alone. One example is the way whole wings or units of this hospital were methodically converted, like falling dominos (but in a planned and orderly fashion) into COVID wings. Staff from plant engineering converted literally hundreds of rooms into specialized respiratory isolation rooms by making them "negative pressure" isolation rooms. Nursing staffs shifted. Medical staffs shifted. And, all the complex ancillaries to keep everything running shifted. Extra space that had been closed were quickly re-opened to increase bed capacity. It was truly an amazing thing to behold. This was not done in 98% of other hospitals because they do not operate in a condition of daily excellence and the expectation that we will do whatever it takes to get the job done. Finally, I feel that during these trying times of the COVID pandemic for healthcare facilities, this company clearly tries to the very best of their ability to protect and accommodate their people. This is an amazing company to work for. I am glad to be part of the team.

BayCare cares for all our Team Members and goes out of their way to make our work experience the best possible. Which in turn increases employee moral and productivity. We as a Nation are going through a horrible Pandemic that seems to have no end in sight. 2020 has been a very challenging and difficult year for everyone and at times many have felt hopeless and fearful for their future. I have seen and read about other companies who had to make the tough decision of reducing staff, furloughing their employees or just ending their employment due to the downturn in the economy. BayCare however, has been extremely wonderful, caring and understanding during these times of uncertainty. They have done what many companies have not been able to do. BayCare took the stance that no Team member would lose their job due to this Pandemic and would do everything in its power to keep staff employed. They constantly provide emails and positive communication that helps reassure us ad let us know that we are all in this together. Other companies should follow BayCare's example. I for one, am very blessed and proud to work for BayCare!

If there is one thing that shows what a great place to work this is, it is management's handling of the pandemic. 100% of all employees were paid until the point it made more financial sense for the employee to be furloughed. Employees were then given an extra paycheck because they knew the unemployment offices would be swamped and a house-made website that was updated daily with resources. Also, they had our entire HR team helping out and 100% guaranteed to have our jobs waiting for us when we came back. The company held its promise and got back on its feet and is now 100% back to work.

The company used furloughs (with a stipend) which was a different approach for the organization and allowed employees to be brought back quickly as business improved.

What employees are saying
ServiceNow has been a wonderful company to work for since I joined, but ServiceNow has been extra fantastically supportive of all of us during the Covid-19 crisis. We transitioned into an all-virtual workforce remarkably smoothly. I really feel that all our leaders, from our wonderful CEO to our amazing Chief Talent Officer and down to front-line managers, have been genuinely concerned about our health and welfare during the crisis. We have all been sent surveys regularly to ask how we are doing, personally and professionally, and what we need. Based on survey results, every single one of us was given $700.00 to spend on wellness for ourselves. This special perk could be spent on exercise equipment, virtual classes, fitness devices, or even classes for our kids. It was a generous benefit and I know it made a big difference for me. I had not been taking very good care of my health the first few months of the pandemic, but after purchasing some simple home exercise equipment, I am working out every day and feel so much better. The survey also revealed that a large number of employees had not taken any time off since the pandemic started in mid-March. Our CEO and Chief Talent Officer were very concerned. In our last all-company meeting, we were all encouraged to take some time off. Our engineering department actually picked a specific Friday and told all of engineering to take that day off. I think that ServiceNow is the best company to work for in the world right now!

Protiviti
- Professional Services

What employees are saying
People at this company genuinely care about each other - not just as colleagues, but as friends and neighbors. When the switch to work-from-home began and the economy slowed, management began taking precautions to protect both employees' health and jobs. They immediately made plans for people to work from home, ensured layoffs were the last possible measure that would be taken if business slowed down, and frequently checked in - both from the executive level and from the local management level - with employees to ensure that anyone who was struggling with staying home felt supported and connected to mental health resources. In particular, the conversation that Protiviti started about mental health even before the pandemic has created a surprisingly safe environment where employees aren't afraid to go to their managers or HR when they are struggling. My family still comment on how well my company responded to the needs of its employees' and the community after Hurricane Harvey, and they are always amazed when I tell them about the work-life balance and the encouragement to take vacation and maintain good mental health. Protiviti is an organization that takes care of its people.

In a very challenging year, HP has shown its true "HP Way" integrity through its treatment of employees and doing the right thing, especially once COVID pandemic started. From our CEO & Executive Leadership team hosting virtual "Connect" sessions with 46k global employees via zoom in the first six weeks after COVID shelter in place started; to our CEO sending more than 46 emails to all employees this fiscal year alone (nearly one every week!) to stay in touch and transparent with everything going on; to hosting bi-weekly manager calls and our HR team creating "HP Spirit Week" with TONS of content for families and colleagues to stay connected to each other (including virtual dance parties, cooking classes, talent competitions and educational webinars and so much more!). This COVID pandemic has truly made us stronger as employees and as a company. I really appreciate that so much thought and care was put into our health and wellbeing from the get-go, including mandating all employees work from home right from the start of the pandemic; providing funds to employees to purchase home office equipment; and providing educational resources with our "Print Play and Learn" and "Windows of Hope" platforms of free printable activities during those difficult days when school wasn't available. ... I am so proud of my coworkers who worked tirelessly to design, 3D print and certify PPE for healthcare workers including face masks, face shields, mask adjusters, nasal swabs, hands-free door openers, and respirator parts. Incredibly, our employees combined with our partners globally have 3D printed more than 4 million PPE Parts! I also love a story from our Puerto Rico offices, whereby in a time when hand sanitizer was impossible to get, our teams pivoted our Ink-production facilities to make huge quantities of hand sanitizer for local hospitals, schools and our HP offices. Few companies have the technology to produce life-saving products overnight, much less the infrastructure to produce them locally at scale. But that’s exactly what we were able to do by mobilizing our digital manufacturing partner network. Something that's not COVID-related, but unique to HP, is our relentless focus on diversity, equity and inclusion. Our HP Board of Directors is the most diverse board of all US based technology companies (comprised of 58% minorities and 42% women), and our leadership team prioritizes DE&I in all levels of the company. We don't just prioritize diversity internally, but also in policy and externally as well - in August 2020, our Chief Legal Officer and President of our Strategy & Business Management business, Kim Rivera, appeared before California's State Senate to support AB-979 which would require minority representation in corporate boards. ... I am so proud to work for HP and every day, each of us brings our whole selves to work - even in this insane COVID environment, we are thriving and our business results are proving it.

Farmers Insurance
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Woodland Hills, CA, US
What employees are saying
Before there was any mention of the dangers of spreading Covid in the workplace (because cases weren't even on the radar yet for most) we were getting the option to work from home if we felt safer doing so. There is not one company that any of my friends work for that has done that until they were forced to do so. On top of that, the flexibility and understanding that I have four kids at home that now have to be essentially home schooled and that my work schedule might have to change, was more than I could have ever expected. The reply I got back was "Work will be here, just do what you need to do with the kids' schooling, and if that means you have to take a 2-3 hour lunch or you sign on early or late that's fine." The amount of stress that takes off myself and my wife is immeasurable. To add on top of that giving an allowance for internet and cellphone costs, offering medical assistance for myself or my family if we were to contract Covid -- I just can't say enough about how lucky I feel I am to be supported by Farmers.

I love that my company is diverse.

SAS Institute Inc.
- Information Technology
- Cary, NC, US
What employees are saying
I think our company's response to COVID 19 has been phenomenal. We were given information beginning in January and kept regularly informed. The decision to work-from-home was revealed to us with thought and care. The implementation was fast and effective. I've felt that concern for the health, safety, and well-being of the workforce has been key to all decisions about our jobs. I feel safe and secure--and believe others in the company feel safe and secure. We have long been told that employees are the company's most valuable assets, and the response to COVID 19 has proved that to be absolutely true. I am also deeply proud of the way say is giving back to the community and our customers during the pandemic. The world will prevail because companies like SAS are taking the lead.

USAA (United Services Automobile Association)
- Financial Services & Insurance
- San Antonio, TX, US
What employees are saying
I really feel that USAA goes above and beyond to ensure the health, happiness and safety of its employees and members (customers). At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, USAA immediately took quick steps to convert the company to something like 96% working from home. When certain grocery items were scarce in stores early on, USAA offered the ability for employees to order them through the company. On the business side of things, USAA was one of the first to begin returning auto insurance premiums to members AND offer relief on payments owned to the company.

Stryker
- Manufacturing & Production
- Portage, MI, US
What employees are saying
Stryker Medical affords its sales reps/account managers a tremendous amount of autonomy and scheduling flexibility as long as the work gets done and you are hitting your quota. Our household has two working parents and a young child who was home for 5 months during COVID-19, in arguably one of the most strictly shut down/quarantined areas of the country. Never once did upper management pressure about childcare or ask how I’d be able to manage my accounts or responsibilities. That trust was critical and invaluable and I realize that many, many employees did not have the same “luxury.” Waking up to know you have a job during a pandemic offers an incredible sense of peace and I will always be grateful for their leadership during this time. It said a lot to me about the way our executive team leads and does not want to micromanage.

Twilio Inc.

What employees are saying
Twilio's response to racial justice and equity was exemplary. It was real, meaningful, extensive, and sustained. I feel proud. Twilio also was responsive to shelter in place with a $1500 credit to employees to set up their workspace at home. Additionally, Twilio was inventive on how to keep connections due to shelter in place with zoom magic shows, grub hub lunch with one's team, video happy hour with a snack box sent to the Twilio, and an exceptional line up of outside speakers at all hands videos and other events.

Plante Moran
- Professional Services
- Southfield, MI, US
What employees are saying
Adaptability - Due to the COVID 19 Pandemic, this was on full display at Plante Moran, both in the deliverables we give to clients, and the benefits given to staff. The best example of this was in the firm's package given to staff while working from home. Not only were staff members given the necessary equipment to work at home (computer monitors, keyboards, etc..), but were also given extra time off, extra money to update their home office, and even a financial incentive to purchase home fitness and wellness equipment at a fraction of the normal cost.

First American Financial Corporation
- Financial Services & Insurance
- Santa Ana, CA, US
What employees are saying
First American honestly cares about its employees in general. Even during the ongoing pandemic, they kept from laying off anyone, instead finding ways to keep bringing in more work to keep everyone busy. While our business segment manager prefers to have everyone in the office, working from home when the pandemic started was a non-issue. In fact, most of us are working from home permanently now in an effort to stay safe, and the company has adapted to serving our needs and concerns as we work from home.

NuStar Energy L.P.
- Industrial Services
- San Antonio, TX, US
What employees are saying
NuStar goes out of their way to care for the employees. This has been seen during the COVID pandemic, by protecting their employees through remote workplace requirements. Huge undertaking equipping the employees with tools and resources needed to work remotely, and business needs across all sectors of the company was met. In addition, our peers experienced pretty significant layoffs, but Nustar has elected the employee first mentality and has not had any layoffs to date. In these challenging times, it is comforting to work for a company like Nustar who truly cares about their #1 asset....the employee.

Alston & Bird LLP
- Professional Services
- Atlanta, GA, US
What employees are saying
The flexibility of being a working mother. Whether that is using the array of childcare services provided in our benefits, or the understanding of my direct manager and others in the department to care for my family as needed, they still treat me the same as everyone else, and therefore I know my family & job are both safe. Especially since the pandemic began, and specifically in the beginning, managing a household with two children under 5 and two full time working parents, as long as my work was done, it did not matter how/when I did my work. I am allowed plenty of space to figure out creative ways to problems and get input from others on best ways to execute.

What employees are saying
Our leadership insured we helped the community with PPE and shut down the offices where covid was rapidly spreading. I felt leadership cared about the organization and their safety. Dow Inc is also on the leading edge with Employee Resource Groups that focus on Inclusion as well as employee hiring and retention. Recently employees were given official time off to vote as well as MLK day off. Our leadership also purchased a billboard emphasizing the importance of Black Lives. Not only did they voice their opinion but they took action. That's why I believe this is a great place to work.
