Additional amenities offered at the Parsippany Campus include an on-site fitness center; an expansive, serene courtyard for team members to enjoy lunch; and various outdoor events, a credit union, coffee barista and cafeteria. Additionally, post-pandemic the company expects to return to a sprawling walking trail that surrounds the campus to promote wellness, and features a community garden, created and managed by team member volunteers who harvest fresh vegetables for donation to local food pantries.
Produced by NJBIZ and managed by Best Companies Group (BCG), the survey included evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics in addition to an associate survey to measure associate experience. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking.
