SAP, Paysafe Group and Shopify Take Top Spots Among Canadian Employers

MILL VALLEY, Calif., Dec. 6, 2017 /CNW/ -- Glassdoor, one of the world's largest and fastest-growing job sites, has announced the winners of its tenth annual Employees' Choice Awards, honoring the Best Places to Work in 2018 across North America and parts of Europe. Unlike any other workplace awards, the Glassdoor Employees' Choice Awards are based on the input of employees who voluntarily provide anonymous feedback, by completing a company review about their job, work environment and employer over the past year.

This year, the Glassdoor Employees' Choice Awards feature six distinct categories, honoring the Best Places to Work across the U.S., Canada, UK, France and Germany. In Canada, Glassdoor has revealed the 25 Best Places to Work (honoring employers with 1,000 or more employees). Winners are ranked based on their overall rating achieved during the past year. (Ratings based on a 5-point scale: 1.0=very dissatisfied, 3.0=OK, 5.0=very satisfied; Actual calculations extend beyond the thousandth decimal place):

The top ten Canadian Best Places to Work in 2018 are:

  1. SAP (4.5 rating)
  2. Paysafe Group (4.5 rating)
  3. Shopify (4.4 rating)
  4. Microsoft (4.4 rating)
  5. Salesforce (4.4 rating)
  6. lululemon (4.4 rating)
  7. Apple (4.4 rating)
  8. Ceridian (4.4 rating)
  9. Hydro One (4.4 rating)
  10. Starbucks (4.4 rating)

The top ten U.S. Best Places to Work in 2018 are:

  1. Facebook (4.6 rating)
  2. Bain & Company (4.6 rating)
  3. Boston Consulting Group (4.6 rating)
  4. In-N-Out Burger (4.6 rating)
  5. Google (4.6 rating)
  6. lululemon (4.6 rating)
  7. HubSpot (4.6 rating)
  8. World Wide Technology (4.5 rating)
  9. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (4.5 rating)
  10. Ultimate Software (4.5 rating)

"We know today's job seekers are more informed than ever about where they go to work, researching everything from company culture to career opportunities to pay philosophy and more. To help people find companies that stand out from the pack, the Glassdoor Employees' Choice Awards recognize employers that are truly Best Places to Work because they're determined by those who really know best - the employees," said Robert Hohman, Glassdoor CEO and co-founder. "Employers where employees love to work continue to prove that they have a recruiting and business performance advantage. We're proud to celebrate the 2018 winners as we mark our tenth anniversary of the Glassdoor Employees' Choice Awards."

Glassdoor's 25 Best Places to Work in 2018 in Canada list features winning employers across diverse industries spanning technology, energy, consulting, travel and tourism, finance, consumer goods, retail, food services and more. In the past three years, eight companies have ranked among the Best Places to Work in Canada: Accenture (No. 23, 4.3 rating), Apple (No. 7, 4.4 rating), Ceridian (No. 4, 4.4 rating), Earl's Kitchen + Bar (No. 13, 4.4 rating), Manulife (No. 21, 4.3 rating), Salesforce (No. 4, 4.4 rating), Starbucks (No. 10, 4.4 rating) and Ubisoft (No. 12, 4.3 rating). Eleven employers are new to the list, including Paysafe Group (No. 2, 4.5 rating), Brookfield Renewable (No.25, 4.3 rating), Costco Wholesale (No. 20, 4.3 rating), Hydro One (No. 9, 4.4 rating), KPMG (No. 19, 4.3 rating), Ledcor (No. 14, 4.3 rating), Marriott International (No. 7, 4.3 rating), PointClickCare (No. 15, 4.3 rating), RBC (No. 18, 4.3 rating), Reliant Home Comfort (No. 22, 4.3 rating) and Stemcell Technologies (No. 11, 4.4 rating).

This year, only two employers, Microsoft and SAP, appear on five lists (U.S. Large, Canada, UK, France, Germany).

When employees submit reviews about their employer on Glassdoor, they are asked to share their opinion on some of the best reasons to work for their employer (pros), any downsides (cons), and are encouraged to provide advice to management. In addition, employees are asked to rate how satisfied they are with their employer overall, rate their CEO, as well as rate key workplace attributes like career opportunities, compensation & benefits, culture & values, senior management and work-life balance. Employees are also asked whether they would recommend their employer to a friend and whether they believe their employer's six month business outlook is positive, negative or if they have no opinion.

Among the more than 700,000 employers reviewed on Glassdoor, the average company rating is 3.3.

Employees' Choice Award winners for the 2018 Best Places to Work in Canada are determined using Glassdoor's proprietary awards algorithm, and each employer's rating determined based on the quantity, quality and consistency of Glassdoor-approved company reviews submitted by Canadian-based employees between November 1, 2016 and October 22, 2017. During the year-long eligibility period, employers considered for the Canadian list must have received at least 25 ratings for each of the eight workplace attributes (overall company rating, career opportunities, compensation & benefits, culture & values, senior management, work/life balance, recommend to a friend and business outlook) taken into account as part of the awards algorithm. For reporting simplicity, ratings are displayed to the nearest tenth, though calculations extend beyond the thousandth decimal place to determine final rank order.
