BNN Bloomberg
Canadian banks, airlines and car companies are some of the best places to work in the country, according to a new report from Indeed.com.
The list of 25, released Tuesday, was compiled using feedback from thousands of company reviews from current and past employees in five categories: pay and benefits, work-life balance, opportunity for advancement, management and leadership, and culture.
"The one thing that job-seekers tell us time and again on Indeed.com is that culture is increasingly important to them," Jodi Kasten, managing director at Indeed Canada told BNN in an interview. "The type of work environment when they come into the office, perks, everything related to the work environment is becoming increasingly important when people are deciding where they want to work."
All of the Big Five banks made the list, with RBC coming out on top, followed by TD Canada Trust.
The Toronto Transit Commission, Telus Communications, General Motors, and The Hospital for Sick Children also ranked in the top five.
