4. General Mills



Get a haircut, grab a family dinner, pick up new glasses—moms can do a lot at this food manufacturing company’s headquarters, thanks to its beauty salon, cafeteria, day care, gym, gas station, tailor and medical clinic with dental and vision care.



A concierge service wraps gifts, researches trips, orders flowers and plans parties. Family members can access free financial coaching, scholarships and a credit union; an employee assistance program finds child care providers and medical specialists. Sabbaticals, flex schedules, summer hours and phase-back arrangements give employees the extra time they need.



5. Discovery Communications



Self-improvement is a major focus for employees at this media company, which enhances their education with up to $5,000 in annual tuition assistance and promotes deeper transformations with financial wellness seminars and life-coaching sessions.



Parents take on-site Baby Basics workshops to learn how to keep their infants healthy and happy; prenatal yoga classes and breastfeeding consultations offer teachable moments for moms. In 2012, the 13-week Lean 4 Life program even allowed employees to work with a dietitian to change their eating habits.
