When looking at Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For<\/em>, three companies stood out to me were Intuit, CarMax, and Edward Jones. My main focus was on choosing companies that I have seen here in Oregon and have also used before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Intuit, employees seem to have a great overall experience, as 87% recommend working there. The article highlights that employees truly feel valued within the company, with 94% feeling welcomed when they join and 91% believing the company understands when they need time off. I believe this reflects the company\u2019s strategic HRM approach, where they prioritize employee well-being. This is likely why the majority of employees have stayed with the company for more than two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At CarMax, 86% of employees say it is a great place to work. This aligns with the course materials on employee development, as CarMax focuses on supporting and nurturing its employees. As a result, 89% of employees feel that management is ethical, and another 89% feel they are treated as valued members, regardless of their position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, at Edward Jones, 89% of employees say it is a great place to work. Many employees take pride in working for the company, feeling appreciated, welcomed, and knowing they are making a meaningful contribution to their community. This is seen in the company\u2019s employee tenure, as the majority have worked there for over six years. I believe this connects to the course materials, as Edward Jones has built a strong company culture and seeks to maintain it by hiring talent that aligns with its goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When thinking about the kind of manager I want to be, I envision myself as someone who fosters a supportive and comfortable environment where my team feels encouraged to grow within the company. My overall goal is to create a workplace like the companies mentioned above where employees enjoy coming to work because they see themselves as an important part of the organization. I previously had a skewed perception of HR, but throughout this class, I believe I will gain a better understanding of how effective HR management can make a significant difference. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
