Facebook named ‘best place to work’ by its employees

Forget “like” — most Facebook employees absolutely love working for the company, a new survey found.
The social media network topped this year’s list of the 50 best places to work in jobs and careers site Glassdoor.com’s fifth annual Employees’ Choice Awards.
Facebook earned an average score of 4.7 out of a maximum of 5, with employees lauding the company for its “fun” and challenging work environment, its global impact on society — and their admiration for CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
“Facebook is really thriving as a place to work, and much of that can be attributed to Mark Zuckerberg, whose approval rating among employees is up to 99% this year,” Glassdoor spokeswoman Samantha Zupan told the Daily News.
“You see they all talk about the great culture there and certainly the perks also, but it’s a unique atmosphere when you know your work is impacting nearly a billion people.”
It was the second time in the past three years the California company was rated No. 1.
Starbucks came in last in Glassdoor’s survey, which has workers rate the pros and cons of their companies anonymously.
Among the most common Starbucks cons: low pay, bad managers — and dealing with rude customers.
