Who We Are

The BEST Places to Work in Oregon™ is a community of organizations dedicated to the betterment of the condition of employment.

We have rallied around three key concepts.

  1. The nobility and honor inherent in employment.
  2. The capacity employment possesses to generate financial and emotional prosperity when it's done right.
  3. Doing employment right is no more expensive and far more profitable than not.

Data and Survey Methodology

To ensure accuracy and legitimacy, POPULUS, a marketing and HR research firm founded in 1990, conducts the surveying and data analysis for the BEST Places to Work in Oregon. The annual program survey measures employee engagement, behaviors, and intentions as well as employer performance on 52 touchpoints across 5 key dimensions that make up an organization’s employee experience.

Only employee feedback is used to rank employers. POPULUS uses the results of the employee survey to compute an Employer Engagement Excellence score which is then used to rank the employers in each size category.
