What are the best places to work, and why?

In your experience (i.e., not according to some internet Top 100 list), what are the best companies/organizations to work in, and why?

I'm particularly interested in corporate, higher ed, and government experience, but by all means, feel free to share whatever you've got (including the worst companies/organizations to work in, if you'd like!).

He is Risen!

This makes me think of a cartoon I saw online that said "My resume is just a list of places where I never want to work again." hahaha.  I have heard from someone who works there that Costco is a good company and treats employees well.

I'll have you know I have an impressive resume' of lawn mowing for an old lady at the parish and spending four months writing mediocre news articles in one of the most terrifying cities the United States has to offer.

Panera was good but that's mostly because I had a really good boss. Best manager I've ever had. 

Wells Fargo was terrible because God left out the sales gene when he made me. Also my bosses were the worst I'd ever had. 

Now I work for the Church. Sometimes it totally bites but I wouldn't rather be doing anything else...

except lying on a beach, maybe. Is 27 too young to start wishing and hoping for retirement?

Nope. I started at 17. ;)

I'm one semester of seventeen into school and I'm already wishing for retirement. :|

I have a work study job at my college in the sales and marketing department of the performing arts venue we have on campus, and I love it, mostly because it's work I'm good at (clerical, office-y stuff pretty much) and especially because the people I work with are awe.some.

I've heard Google has an excellent reputation.

Yeah, they've been #1 on all the top-companies-to-work-for lists for years.

I work for Auburn/Alabama Extension and I love it. The way they treat their employees is amazing. Decent benefits, lots of time to acrue for vacation (when I get married this summer, I have enough time to take 3.5 weeks off and I'll still have about 2 weeks left). People are kind to each other and helpful. I also have a really great boss.  

 

I worked at food Services Inc. It was terrible
