Fortune Best Places to Work - Tacoma Edition
Fortune Magazine has published its top 100 Companies to work for list for 2006. Representing Tacoma we have Russell Investment Group at # 63. From our insider at Russell:
Russell is a great company to work for because there is a strong focus on associates, with an understanding that the life at work should not negatively impact the much more important life outside of work. This focus on the associate extends to competitive salaries, liberal vacations and sabbatical time, special benefits that assist with family support (adoption benefits, partner benefits, etc.), excellent retirement benefits, and a generous matching plan for charitable contributions.
Washington State had a total of 7 companies on the list. Topping the state is REI at #9 – our little co-op is all grown up now. In order (with links to the Fortune profiles):
- #9 Recreational Equipment Inc. – Kent
- #29 Starbucks – Seattle
- #42 Microsoft – Redmond
- #46 Nordstrom – Seattle
- #48 Perkins Coie – Seattle
- #63 Russell Investment Group – Tacoma
- #87 Washington Mutual – Seattle
