Van Pools and Subsidized Transportation to Work
Being green is where it's at, and companies that help underwrite employees' public transportation costs or provide van pools are way ahead of the curve.
Town Hall Meetings
Companies that value employee input make a point of sharing news with their team members, virtually or face-to-face. Town hall meetings with leadership are a terrific way to generate ideas and get employee buy-in on new initiatives.
Ethics Hotline
All employers talk about ethics, but the ones who provide a way to report misdeeds are the ones most likely to catch problems. Confidential ethics hotlines allow employees to anonymously report bad actors without taking their chances on the dreaded 'chain of command.'
Distance Learning
We've got the Internet, let's use it! Distance-learning programs let employees gain new skills, right at their desktops.
Company-Sponsored Alumni Groups
Back in the day, a bunch of former Data General employees started an alumni group called the Grey Eagles, and the idea has caught on. Now, smart companies like McKinsey sponsor their own alumni groups, sending the message : 'If you worked for us in the past, we would love to keep in touch in the future.' More than a source of job leads and connections, alumni
groups help their sponsor organizations hire and retain talented folks.
