In a list of the top 50 places to work in the U.S., compiled by Glassdoor.com, an online jobs site which collected and compiled reviews from U.S.-based company employees throughout 2009, Apple Inc. places near the middle of the pack at #22.
The Top 10:
1. Southwest Airlines Co.
2. General Mills Inc.
3. Slalom Consulting
4. Bain & Company
5. McKinsey & Company
6. MITRE
7. Boston Consulting
8. Continental Airlines Inc.
9. Procter & Gamble Co.
10. Juniper Networks Inc.
Glassdoor also ranked the worst companies to work for in the U.S., a list that includes Kmart, RadioShack, and Hewlett-Packard, among others.

MacDailyNews Take: Beleaguered Dell would’ve been #1 on the worst list if they had any U.S. employees left.
I have nothing clever to say in response to this article.

1. Southwest Airlines Co.
Well, as an employee of American Airline you get very cheap tickets to Europe (about $40 dollars) very often (up to 5 round trips a year).
The march of the drones.
there is a “worst list”. Gibson Guitar was worst.
Actually ranking #22 on a Top 50 list is hardly “middle of the pack,” since there are thousands of large companies in the country. I’d say ALL of the Top 50 companies can be considered stellar performers!
Gibson Guitar ranks worse than an abattoir? What the hell are they putting in those guitars?
On another note, I wouldn’t fret or get too amped up about Gibson. Of course they string you along without sticking out their necks. They must have plucky workers who aren’t too picky.
He’s baaaack!

Little in common with Fortune’s list.
Without an explanation of methodology, this list is worthless.
(Where’s Wegmans? It’s been in the top 10 of Fortune’s list for over 10 years.)
Whereas I normaly enjoy the somewhat playfull tone of the MDN, with it’s no holds barred Macaphile attitude, Dell workers losing jobs followed by a *winky* is rather inappropriate…
I’m glad I work for a large, succesful global computer/hardware manufacturer that has recently broadened it’s range into mobile telecom too but get no satisfaction from hearing about other people losing their jobs…
A little thought please…
Apple could have been first but that damn Apple Gestapo prevented most of the Apple employees from voting.
Gee, sharp wit from Amp, even on a minor subject, is music to my ears….and Gibson workers, don’t end up with a suspended chord around your neck. There may be one less Paul to rob Peter for, with hopefully some money left in RD. Artist wood appreciate that (heavily)!!!

LOL, TT!
Not to harp, but the key is that Gibson should be wary of staff infections accordingly.

Hope I didn’t get off bass too much with my pitch to fiddle around and then-presto!-cause you to Ralph. Armstrong tactics can disrupt harmony, and some people are ‘so’nata fan of fusion. They would rather piccolo keyed lounge sound that could cause me to self induce Castrato.
But, dawg, if you can cut-time to enjoy a Mystical Adventure, you will get a Randy feeling (but the Jacks-on, not off), and you will gain a Rhythm of Hope….dawg.
