Best Places to Work in the Bay Area |
To determine which companies make the list, publishers of the San Francisco Business Times and the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal went directly to the employees of Bay Area companies asking them to evaluate their overall satisfaction with their workplaces. Bio-Rad was selected based on its Bay Area employees taking part in an online satisfaction survey earlier this year. The company was recognized for how well it ranked in areas such as how happy their employees are with the work culture, management practices, benefits, and overall compensation.
"It is an honor to once again be recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in the Bay Area," said Norman Schwartz, Bio-Rad President and Chief Executive Officer. "It's important to Bio-Rad that we provide a positive work environment, where employees feel good about what they do and that they making a difference in the advancement of science and healthcare."
