  • Top Workplaces 2016
    Congratulations to all of our winners: Top Workplaces 2016 OregonLive.com This is the fifth year The Orego­ nian/OregonLive has recognized the Top Workplaces in Oregon and south­ west Washington. All Stories Fourteen companies have made the list for a remarkable five years in a row. Starting with employee recommendations and self­nominations, WorkplaceDy­ namics – an employee research and consulting firm ­­ invited more than 1,000 companies to participate in confidential employee surveys this spring. Of those, more than 150 agreed to make their almost 55,000 combined employees available for surveys. Almost half of the employees responded. Key sentiments among workers with winning companies are feelings of align­ ment and connection. Alignment means employees know where the company is headed, and connection means workers feel appreciated and feel their work is meaningful. "Engaged employees are motivated to do great work, loyal to the organization and recommend the organization to others," said Doug Claffey, CEO of Work­ placeDynamics. "Lack of engagement hurts productivity, hiring, retention and, ultimately, it hurts profits. The winners list includes a wide range of industry type and size. Employees gave their opinions on everything from pay and benefits to working conditions to corporate leadership. All responses were anonymous. WorkplaceDynamics then took the results and ran statistical tests to ensure validity. From the scores, the company named the top 10 large companies, top 40 mid­size companies and top 50 small companies in the region in terms of workplace satisfaction. Some companies also were selected for special awards in areas such as leader­ ship, new ideas and ethics.
