LinkedIn is arguably the most popular website for professional networking and finding jobs. They have recently released their “Top Companies” list for 2018, a representation of the top 50 companies where “professionals most want to work across the U.S. based on the actions of LinkedIn’s more than 546 million professionals.”

By tapping into four main pillars – interest in the company, engagement with the company’s employees, job demand, and employee retention, LinkedIn ranked these 50 companies for 2018. And which one came out on top? The always-impressive, ever-expanding Amazon.

Consumers can’t get enough of Amazon, so it is reassuring to know that the people who work for the Seattle-based company are just as satisfied. As the second-largest private employer in America (Walmart is #1) and a global headcount of 566,000, Amazon is by all means impressive and inspires people to seek out employment with their company.

Wise Stepnotes some impressive and attractive reasons as to why Amazon is such a great place to work. “The Amazon pay scale is good and above average as compared to other companies. It comes with several benefits and also gives you the freedom to move around. The Amazon work environment also lets people be themselves. People are open-minded and willing to listed to you. Amazon is also an innovative company and gives you a great opportunity to learn.”

CNBC reported that millennials are jumping at the chance to work for Amazon. “They give young professionals what they want most: career growth, flexibility, and a sense of purpose. They’re able to learn and be challenged and see results.” Additionally, “millennials are more likely to seek out companies with progressive management.” At a company like Amazon, these millennials feel like they are making a difference in the larger sense through the work they are doing. It is not only about personal achievement for this forward-thinking generation.

Snap notes, “Amazon’s success stems from CEO Jeff Bezos and his management team, who operates differently than most other companies. He knows what works and isn’t afraid to take chances. Staying connected to what consumers want is what makes Amazon great.” Employees take pride in knowing their work is appreciated by consumers who feel their voice is being heard and they see the impact first-hand.

According to LinkedIn, “You won’t find extraordinary perks at the company, and the work tempo is famously intense. But for people who want to chase big dreams with giant-company resources at their disposal, the chance to make a mark at Amazon is an enticement that sells itself.” The proof is in the pudding. “Amazon’s job listings have attracted 55 million views and 8 million applications in the past 12 months alone.”

Check out the entire list of the Top Companies from 1 – 50. Take a guess as to where Starbucks, Nike, Facebook, Twitter, Uber, and Netflix landed.

Have you considered a career with Amazon? Based on public opinion, you won’t regret it.

Experts agree: it’s time to clean your workspace for your most creative era yet Spring cleaning is overrated. In the Spring, I want to go-go-go! Not get bogged down in the minutiae of tidying.

Despite the fact that late-stage capitalism is an amoral hellhole driven by a borderline religious belief in the sanctity of brands, we would never, ever suggest that anyone should shoplift from big-box stores, or even imply that doing so is morally okay or a victimless crime. But hypothetically, if we were to give any tidbit

The Momager May Be Worth More Than You Think… Kris Jenner is a pop culture icon for many reasons. While you may have watched her meteoric rise to fame on Keeping Up with the Kardashians — which originally debuted on E! — she’s actually been a fascinating figure in the public eye for ages.  As

In the 1980s movie Little Shop of Horrors, the protagonist Audrey fantasizes about owning a house of her very own. She doesn’t ask for much: just a simple one-storey place with a washer, dryer, and bedding will do.  And while this moment in the film is intended to satirize the American Dream by underlining how

The Kar-Jenner family is loaded thanks to their business prowess (and fierce momager, Kris Jenner.) Kim Kardashian said it best when she lamented that it “seems like nobody wants to work these days,” but these sisters never have a day off. And that’s why the topic of Kylie Jenner’s net worth is so intriguing.  But

If your business offers corporate credit cards or expense accounts to employees, there’s a good chance there is unethical spending going on. 33% of corporate credit card holders admit to blatantly defrauding the companies they work for, and twice that amount confess to making “risky purchases.” But a thread on AskReddit reveals some of the

Taylor Swift is a megastar singer-songwriter known for her narrative songwriting, catchy pop tunes, and versatility across genres like country, pop, and indie folk.

Traditional weddings can be incredibly stressful, not to mention super pricey – many newlyweds couldn’t buy a house with that money. What’s supposed to be the happiest day of your life can often feel like an endless quest for absolute perfection – almost as if the ceremony doesn’t come off flawlessly, the marriage itself will

I can’t remember who gave me this personal finance hack, or, rather, advice: but one juicy tidbit was that I should keep a balance on my credit cards and that it would up my credit score. I’ve even wiped out the balance on a credit card debt and then purchased something that I slowly pay

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become overwhelmingly popular in the past few years. The world has leaned full-force into technology and entrusted AI with, well, everything. You can see AI commercials, AI-powered statistics during sports games, and there was even a whole writer’s strike over the AI Invasion of storytelling and Hollywood. As I’ve watched tens
