SAS

Data analytics software maker listened to employees in Germany who wanted to be savvier about social media technologies. So the company launched a "Social Summer" last year that not only offered training in the use of tools like Facebook and Twitter, but also resulted in more SAS Institute employees interacting directly with the public, including job seekers. Staffers also appreciate the company's internal site, The Hub. "Professional knowledge, a bit of gossip, discussions of private interests, the chance to meet international colleagues — The Hub provides all of this," says one German employee. "For me as a 'SASler,' this internal network has become a real virtual linchpin." Read the Great Place to Work review.
