Unleashing the Love: Top 10 Swiss Companies Adored by Their Employees
Embrace the vibrant tapestry of leading corporations in Switzerland, each with one shared attribute: a workforce brimming with passion for their product or service. Such is the finding of a recent collaboration between Handelszeitung and Statista, a data powerhouse that excels in information gathering.
In a world where employees crave a robust, resilient employer, they seek a job that provides security, endures crises, and holds a culture they can champion. On February 12th, Handelszeitung pronounced just such a list, dishes out a powerful endorsement of Swiss companies that excel as employers.
But how did they arrive at these conclusions? A comprehensive survey, you ask? Indeed, the survey reached out to a whopping 15,000 Swiss employees spread across over 1,500 companies cradling at least 200 employees. Handelszeitung assures us that this diverse group mirrors the nation's regional and socio-economic landscape, thanks to the participants' vast representation in online panels.
The final score is a composite of employee responses that gauge their inclination to flaunt their employer’s name to others, rating them on a scale from 0 to 10: "I would definitely not recommend" to "I would definitely recommend," respectively. Previous ratings also factor into the calculation to reflect a company's growth or stagnation in employee satisfaction.
Without further ado, let the drumroll begin! In the top spot, nestled in Bern, is the insurance titan, Mobiliar. This champion is cherished for its "human, close, and responsible" culture and a strong sense of camaraderie that permeates the organization. It's a beacon of stability, ensuring jobs even in the stormiest of storms – a quality that resonates with challengers.
