7 Companies Thatll Give You Serious Work FOMO
7 Companies Thatll Give You Serious Work FOMO I admit it I have a chronic case of company-lust.Its sort of like wanderlust, but for companies other than the one youre employed by. Despite having a full-time job Im over the moon about, Ive always had a weird fascination with those best places to work lists. Its almost a hobby to read about what makes other companies tick, from unique company cultures to learning what sets them apart in terms of career benefits.Whether youre actively job hunting right now or like me just have a curiosity about whether the grass really is greener at the office next door, this is the list for you. Here are seven companies weve got serious FOMO for1.TOMSFirst of all, they have a slide IN their headquarters. As in, a playground slide inside their office building, connecting the second floor to the first floor. Ive seen it (and ridden it) myself. If thats not enough for you, their mission is to, literally, help the worlds children one shoe at a time, and employees have the opportunity to join in on their giving trips around the world.2.REIThis is the brand thats been telling you to optoutside instead of hitting the mall. REI genuinely practices what they preach, closing for a paid holiday on Black Friday, working to make their buildings (both stores and offices) environmentally friendly, and encouraging employees to, literally, get outside. That happens through a paid sabbatical for employees whove worked there 15+ years, company discounts, and YAY days, a.k.a. one paid day off every six months to go you guessed it play outdoors.3.EllevestThis financial advising start-up welches started and is run by a woman, and literally lists a chocolate drawer and wine fridge as a work perk. Need I say more? Theres also unlimited vacation and the option for a flexible work schedule. I have no expertise or background in finance, and yet would love the chance to hang out in Ellevests office.4.Whole FoodsThe sense of community and steep discount on groceries (20%, even for part-timers) is what has me crossing my fingers for an opportunity to someday work at Whole Foods. A friend of mine took a standort at a local store fresh out of law school while awaiting her bar exam results and loved the work environment so much that she has kept her position part-time to this day, despite also working at a law firm full-time.5.LululemonIts more than than just stretchy yoga pants and sports bras, folks. At the core of Lululemons mission and manifesto is goal-setting and fulfilling your individual passion. The company encourages empowering yourself and others, as well as living a healthy lifestyle, and includes personal development training and free fitness classes as some of the employment benefits. I have yet to meet a Lululemon employee who isnt bursting with excitement for the companys brand and mission, which to me is a testament to a great company culture.6. AirbnbHow does an annual stipend of $2,000 for the sole purpose of travel ing sound? Air BnB employees are able to stay in an Airbnb listing anywhere in the world, and over at their U.S. headquarters, enjoy a healthy meal and snack program. Sign me up7.ClifBarAs a runner, I love their bars as pre-run fuel, but ClifBars ability to personify their feed your adventure tagline is pretty darn inspiring. From an onsite gym with a bouldering wall, a flexible work schedule, and a paid time off program that starts at 15 days, I cant imagine a better place to work.
