December 7, 2017:\u00a0It\u2019s been a tumultuous year for Facebook (FB), which has been the subject of scrutiny amid revelations that Russia purchased ads on the social network to meddle with 2016\u2019s U.S. presidential election. But that hasn\u2019t affected how many Facebook employees feel about working there.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, job site Glassdoor announced the social network ranked No. 1 atop its \u201c100 Best Places to Work in 2018\u201d list, which ranks companies based entirely on reviews that employees post to Glassdoor. This is the first time Facebook has topped Glassdoor\u2019s list since 2013, beating other tech companies such as Google (GOOG, GOOGL) at No. 5, HubSpot at No. 7, World Wide Technology at No. 8, Ultimate Software (ULTI) at No. 10., Yahoo at No. 65 and VMWare (VMW) at No. 33. Apple (AAPL) also made the list but slid 48 spots from last year to No. 84.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s clear employees love working at Facebook,\u201d said Glassdoor CEO Robert Hohman in a statement. \u201cWhat we really see them appreciate most is the company\u2019s mission-driven culture, transparent leadership and the fact that their work literally impacts the lives of billions of people worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n
Many Facebook employee reviews currently on Glassdoor\u2019s site explained the advantages of working at the social network include good work-life balance, a very open and transparent work culture, and the opportunity to work alongside smart colleagues they can learn from. Facebook also offers competitive salaries \u2014 the average software engineer earns $126,780 a year \u2014 alongside comprehensive benefits and perks: four months of paid parental leave for new mothers and fathers, $4,000 doled out to parents for each child birth, subsidies for pre-school tuition and lots of free food.<\/p>\n
In previous interviews with Yahoo Finance, Facebook employees said they appreciated the fact that the company embraces transparency and lets workers be themselves.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m Southern, I\u2019m black, I\u2019m Jehovah\u2019s Witness, I love video games \u2014 I\u2019m a lot of things \u2014 and I\u2019m expected to bring all those things to my job every day,\u201d explained Tory Hargro, a Facebook product design manager who leads the social network\u2019s Live video efforts and creative design team.<\/p>\n
This latest bit of good news puts a cap on an otherwise roller coaster of a year for Facebook. Although the social network topped Wall Street expectations in its most recent quarter and the company\u2019s core advertising business continues to perform extremely well, the company also faced stiff headwinds in the public eye, as it struggled for months to accept responsibility for the role it played \u2014 inadvertent as it was \u2014\u00a0in last year\u2019s U.S. presidential election. Still,\u00a0while its reputation may have temporarily taken a hit with some users, clearly its work culture hasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n
