The best employer in Georgia may surprise you

(The Center Square) – A new survey of employees who work for large employers ranks Houston County Schools the best organization to work for in Georgia, according to an analysis by the Forbes website.

The second annual Forbes list of top employers, which is based on a survey of 80,000 workers nationwide, consists of 51 separate rankings, one for each of the 50 states and Washington, D.C. Only employers with at least 500 workers on their payrolls were included in the survey.

Houston County Schools, which has about 3,000 employees, is headquartered in Perry, Forbes reports.https://ad4c1b406dbb13745b6d84e46c717b73.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-37/html/container.html

The surveys were carried out between October 2019 and May 2020, so employee opinions were collected before and after the coronavirus pandemic spread to the United States, according to Forbes. Forbes worked with the market research firm Statista to process the employee data.
