Ask HN: What are examples of companies with a great culture?

from the ask-hn dept.

I'm looking for a new job which got me thinking; which companies have/had the best cultures? What makes somewhere a great place to work? Are there examples of companies known for a great culture which changed or degraded over time?

I think this starts with defining what great culture means. For me, great culture means; prioritizing a work/life balance, health (mental and physical), trust, expertise, EQ and diversity (to name a few).

I've been at the USDS for about 14 months and find their culture to be an awesome fit for me.

I used to work at Emerson Electric in Ferguson Missouri USA. They got a great culture and even have family picnics.

My thought stemmed from reading the "Ask HN: What are examples of companies dying due to many people quitting?" post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32831701
