The poll, conducted by ModernThink, an independent research company, surveyed nearly 10,000 employees from hundreds of companies with headquarters or satellite offices in Los Angeles. Key criteria in determining the top winners were culture of the organization, communication between employees, and growth opportunities available to workers. An anonymous employee satisfaction survey accounted for 75 percent of the ranking, while an employer survey of salary, benefits and other information accounted for the rest.
The Phelps Group offers a range of progressive workplace benefits, including reimbursement for continuing education, ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan), telecommuting, pet-friendly work environment, green workplace program, full-feedback environment, competitive pay and health benefits, weekly educational seminars, and a hosted lunch twice a week.
