BrazilThe 40 best companies to work for in the Netherlands
New research among employees and HR leaders sheds light on which companies in the Netherlands are the best workplaces. Meet the country’s top employers to work for.
In what has become somewhat of a tradition now, every year human capital research institute Great Place to Work assesses the company culture of hundreds of employers in the country. The researchers look at two main components: how happy employees are with their employer and the opportunities they are provided, and how the company culture fosters an environment which allows employees to excel.
The culture audit looks at aspects such as how companies inspire their employees, how transparent they operate, the degree of inclusiveness, how work-life balance is supported, and how professional development is supported, among others. The employee satisfaction survey asks employees to rate their employers on aspects such as job satisfaction, communication and collaboration among teams, company ethics and integrity, and the quality of leadership.
