Would you a make a good boss? What kinds of perks and benefits programs would you offer to employees?

When Great Place to Work surveys thousands of workers whose companies vie for a spot on our best workplaces lists, we ask them to rate their employers on a variety of topics: credibility of leadership and management, overall job satisfaction, and workplace camaraderie, for starters. We also ask questions about opportunities for advancement, pay and benefit programs, hiring practices, methods of communication, training, recognition programs, and diversity efforts.
