2016 TOP WORK PLACES - Washington Post

Welcome to The Washington Post’s annual roundup of Top Workplaces, our attempt to identify the best places to work in greater Washington.
The 150 organizations that made the cut this year scored the highest all-around when we surveyed their employees. We asked people to focus on a host of factors, including the quality of leadership, pay and benefit practices, and work-life balance issues.
This is the third year we have undertaken this effort in partnership with the employee survey firm Workplace Dynamics, and we can begin to see patterns emerging on how our region stacks up against others.
Let’s start with what has not changed: Year after year employees have told us that what they care most about is feeling appreciated. They want to know the company is headed in the right direction and that they have confidence in their leader. They want work that allows them to reach their full potential.
