These Are the Mass. Cos. on Glassdoor's ‘Best Places to Work 2017'

A share of companies may still be clinging to their old-school way of doing business, a multitude of articles communicating the value of creating a positive work environment and treating employees well. It increases engagement, productivityinnovation and retention. And anyone who's worked for organizations on both sides of the spectrum - the best and the worst places to work - can attest that being with a company that cares makes you want to work harder, while working for a company that treats you crap breeds contempt.

Glassdoor, the website that lets employees and job prospects review organizations based on their personal experiences with them, increases transparency into a company's business practices and how it impacts people's quality of life. It just released its 2017 Employee's Choice Awards for the Best Places to Work. There's a notable number of companies based in Massachusetts that landed on the list of 50 Best Places to Work, including the top spot.

The following rankings were provided by Glassdoor and were established from company reviews employees submitted during the eligibility timeframe. The website's proprietary algorithm then went to town, generating company ratings from "the quantity, quality and consistency of the reviews during the period of eligibility."
