Forbes’ list of the top 500 large employers in the United States was determined through an anonymous survey of 30,000 working Americans. Respondents were asked how likely they were to recommend their own employers to friends and family, and were asked to give their opinions on a series of work- related topics, such as working conditions, salary, potential for development and company image regarding their current employer. As a result of our employees’ responses, the County was placed #133 on the list.
