The 100 Best Green Companies rankings were calculated by Oregon
Business research editor Brandon Sawyer and research partner Davis,
Hibbitts & Midghall based on confidential employee surveys and a
report completed by each company. The green questions were asked during
the 100 Best Companies survey last fall. It isn’t easy being green, but
this year’s inaugural class of the 100 Best Green Companies to Work For
in Oregon shows that if you’re committed to sustainable practices, it
pays off not only for the environment and the bottom line, but also in
being a great place to work. Keeping employees happy

It’s challenging enough to keep employees happy and workplace morale
high during the best of times. But what about in the worst of times? Some, like Northwest Newborn (No. 2 Small), have found ways to maintain a high sense of satisfaction and loyalty.

Lessons of the not-so-great

Companies can often learn more about their workplaces issues from negative comments than from praise. Here's a sampling from some of the 100 Best employee surveys of what doesn't work, even from some of the best workplaces in the state.

Ingredients of a great workplace

What do the Top 10 Best Companies do that keeps their employees motivated, loyal and upbeat? Paying 100% of health insurance premiums and ugly t-shirt contests are part of it. And don't forget the persuasive powers of company pups like Frankie from Stamp Connection (No. 3 Small).
