Week #2, Free Post: Great Place to Work in Brazil and USA

If you read my 'About Me' page you may already know that I am from Brazil. I cam to study in the US but I do not discard the possibility of going back to work there, actually this is on my plans now. Even being a freshman I am already very worried about my future and I search a lot about internships, trainees programs.. In my researches I have found the Great Place to Work website, the institute make research all over the world to create, study, and recognize great workplaces. I have done a research about Brazilians great places to work and also Americans, and here is the result:

13. LOSANGO                                        13. David Weekley Homes

14. Boehringer Ingelheim                    14. Burns & McDonnell

15. Duke Energy                                     15. Hilcorp

16. Chemtech                                          16. CHG Healthcare Services

17. Coca-Cola Recofarma                     17. USAA

18. Embraer                                            18. Southern Ohio Medical Center

19. Elektro Eletricidade e Serviços    19. Baptist Health

20. Novozymes                                       20. Ultimate Software

There are some companies in common, for example Google and SAS and both of them are in good position for both places. In Brazil we can see the popular names as Coca Cola, Microsoft, Volvo.. However in the US the companies are not famous at all, this is good because this way we take off that image that good companies are the famous ones. This research will help a lot when I look for internships and also a job.
