1. SAS：CEO咖啡座談會聽民意

????總部所在地：美國北卡羅來納州卡瑞市

????2011年收入：27億美元

????2011年排名：2

????今年，軟件公司SAS從去年的第2位上升到首位。是什么讓這家公司成為年度最卓越雇主呢？很重要的一點就是，公司領導人非常平易近人。公司CEO吉姆·古德奈特每個月都會舉行“咖啡座談會”。它是一種可隨意交流的早餐會，向所有員工開放，可以交流任何問題。這種對話形式非常受歡迎，因此其他部門也紛紛開始效仿。SAS有極低的自愿離職率，僅有2.6%，很大程度上是由于公司積極向上的工作環(huán)境。一位員工說：“我工作過的其他地方從未從來沒有讓我覺得思維如此活躍?！?/p>

????Software company SAS climbed to the top of the global list this year, edging up from the No. 2 spot it held last year. So what makes this company so great to work for? Well, for one thing, its leaders are certainly accessible. CEO Jim Goodnight hosts monthly "Conversations Over Coffee," unscripted breakfast meetings that are open to all employees. Any topic is fair game. These conversations are so popular that other division heads have begun to hold similar events for their employees. SAS has an extremely low voluntary turnover rate of 2.6%, in part because of its positive working environment. "I haven't felt so intellectually alive in any other place I have worked," says one employee.
