13. Visa



The company recently introduced maternity leave coaching for expectant parents and rolled out genetic cancer screenings, adding up to the list of top-grade perks.



14. Adobe



A recent program called ‘Kickbox’ was launched which allowed employees to develop and test ideas. Employees get $1,000 and lots of encouragement to refine their potential breakthrough. More recently, it introduced "experience-a-thons" so employees can dig in to new Adobe products and provide feedback ahead of launch.



15. Workday



Workday has 5,600 employees and still boasts a customer satisfaction rate of 98 percent. Employees enjoy unlimited time off, “family fun events” and support to serve the community.



16. Pandora



Music lovers receive on-site concerts with performers like Father John Misty or The Ting Tings, and plenty of in-office instruments to play. The company provides complete coverage for gender affirmation surgeries.



17. Under Armour



To house a large workforce, Under Armour searches for old spaces to redevelop. Its Baltimore harbor headquarters is put up in a former P&G factory complex — buildings are named after soaps — and includes a basketball court, café and four planted biowalls for healthy breathing.



18. Tableau



The company takes happiness seriously; it lately upgraded many of its offices globally, adding private and open work spaces. Tableau staffers come together with “Iron Viz” competitions.



19. Blackrock



It holds ‘Two day Innovation Summits’, where teams of select innovators across departments pitched ideas to senior leaders, resulting in new products to help retirees through the “decumulation” stage of their retirement and to better connect co-workers across the company.



20. Coca-Cola



Coca-Cola employs about 123,000 and will soon provide six weeks of paid leave to all new parents, an idea motivated by its millennial staff.
