Three Michigan-based companies made Fortune Magazine’s 2010 “100 Best Companies to Work For” list. The companies include: Quicken Loans, Livonia (#29), Plante & Moran, Southfield (#66), and Herman Miller, Zeeland (#97).
The results were lauded by Dan Mulhern, founder of the Michigan’s Next Great Companies initiative, which promotes the connection between business results and strong corporate culture.
"The Michigan companies featured on Fortune's '100 Best Companies to Work For' list recognize that being a great place to work creates a strategic advantage. The most successful companies understand and unleash the power of their employees,” said Mulhern. "These companies demonstrate that particularly in tough times it’s essential to create a culture that brings out employees’ best.”
The Great Places to Work Institute compiles results from employee responses to its proprietary “trust and culture” survey, as well as information from applicant companies. To be eligible for Fortune’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” list, companies must have at least 1,000 employees. (For more information, visit http://www.greatplacetowork.com/.)
“We work with these companies regularly, see them up close, and know their success is founded on corporate cultures that emphasize shared values, innovation and trust,” said Greg Main, president and CEO of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation.
In addition to companies headquartered in Michigan, others on the 2010 list with significant operations in the state were: Google, Ann Arbor (#04), and SC Johnson, Bay City (#83).
