SAS, the leader in business analytics software and services, ranked No. 1 based on inspiring work, open communication, generous benefits and work-life balance.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis recognition underscores our efforts to encourage creativity and innovation around the world, no matter where we are located,\u201d said SAS CEO Jim Goodnight. \u201cEmployee feedback is critical to achieving first place on this list. It means a great deal that SAS employees value the company as much as we value them. It also mirrors how we value our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

SAS is recognized worldwide by Great Place to Work. Last year, SAS ranked No. 2 on the World\u2019s Best Multinational Workplaces list. In 2012, SAS Belgium and SAS Sweden were both No. 1 on their country lists of Best Companies to Work For. SAS corporate headquarters (US) and SAS Norway were both No. 1 on their country lists in 2010 and 2011. This year, SAS has been among the top workplaces in Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Greece, India, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland and the US.<\/p>\n

That is quite a line up.<\/p>\n

“The companies listed on the second annual World\u2019s Best Multinational Workplaces List are creating workplaces dedicated to fostering trust, pride and camaraderie among their employees,\u201d said Susan Lucas-Conwell, Global CEO of Great Place to Work. \u201cTheir inclusion on this prestigious list demonstrates their commitment to continually improving the lives of their employees and setting innovative new standards for workplaces of the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
