>Forbes.com reports that employers are continuing to offer
>benefits and perks to their employees in spite of the
>tough economy. For example, Prudential offers lifestyle
>perks, including onsite gyms, employee assistance hot
>lines, childcare and gifts for each five-year
>anniversary. Computer Associates, in addition to a full
>array of typical benefits, offers pet insurance, a $500
>bond for every new baby, and free breakfast every morning
>in every office. Freddie Mac offers alternative work
>options, corporate lactation rooms for nursing moms, an
>opportunity to purchase extra vacation days, volunteer
>and wellness programs and an education assistance
>program.

>Which companies are the best to work for and how can you
>find them? That depends on what you're looking for in an
>employer. There are the companies that earn a place on
>the Fortune 500 list of America's largest corporations.
>(http://www.fortune.com/fortune/fortune500)
>
>Walmart tops the list, the first time a retailer has led
>the pack. Exxon-Mobil, General Motors, General Electric,
>Ford and Citigroup are all in the top ten.
>
>However, the biggest is not necessarily the best.
>Inc.com, for example, measures success by growth rather
>than by size. The Inc 500 is an annual list of the
>fastest growing companies. Most of these are small
>companies with large growth and they are still growing
>despite the down economy. Sometimes, smaller can be
>better!
>
>There are also the companies that best serve specific
>groups of employees. The top companies for women,
>according to WorkingMother.com, include Abbot Labs,
>American Express, Bank of America, Colgate Palmolive and
>Fannie may. While the top company for diversity,
>according to social research firm Kinder, Lydenberg,
>Domini & Company, is IBM. Other companies on the list
>include Procter & Gamble, Hewlett Packard, and Pitney
>Bowes.
>
>Fortune magazine also lists their "Top 100 Companies to
>Work for" at:
>
>http://www.fortune.com/fortune/bestcompanies
>
>There are several other lists like this that are focused
>regionally and by industry. Simply visit your favorite
>search engine and type in "best places to work". Review
>the Fortune 500 lists and lists of "best" companies to
>work for in order to develop your own list of companies
>that interest you.
>
>Then visit the company web site. There is usually career
>information in the "About Us" or "Careers" section of
>their web site. In many cases, users can apply online for
>current openings. Don't stop there! If you have a contact
>at the company, use them. If you are a college graduate
>(even from years ago!) contact the Career Office at your
>university and ask them if you can get a list of alumni at
>the company. Ask the alumni how they can help your
>candidacy.
>
>Despite the tough job market, there are employers who are
>hiring and many of these companies are those on the
>various "best employer" lists. So use the list to your
>best advantage!
