How Was Employees' Happiness Measured?

The rankings reflect employers¡¯ increased awareness and investments in well-being, a catch-all term that became a focus during the pandemic when employee burnout and mental health issues like anxiety and depression skyrocketed. More than seven in ten people said their employer is now more concerned about their mental health than it was previously, the American Psychological Association (APA) found. Still, organizational efforts to boost well-being vary in terms of effectiveness. As per Bloomberg report, a survey of more than 2,000 US workers from human-resources technology firm Alight found that less than half believe their employer cares about their wellbeing.

What The Company With The Happiest Employees Has To Say

Topping the list, Love¡¯s Travel Stops & Country Stores scored 83 out of 100 in the first-ever survey from job site Indeed, part of Japan¡¯s Recruit Holdings Co., which analyzed millions of anonymous employee reviews to rate US companies on happiness, stress, satisfaction and purpose. Only companies with 1,000 or more employees were eligible, and the top twenty ranged from airlines to consultancies to fast-food chains. Closely-held Love¡¯s, which also operates a truck fleet, hotels and a logistics firm, employs more than 40,500 people including 1,500 at its Oklahoma City headquarters.

¡°We didn¡¯t go into a board room and invent our values, they came from how my Dad behaved and the example he showed,¡± said chief culture officer Jenny Love Meyer, 57, whose father Tom, now deceased, founded the company in Watonga, Oklahoma in 1964. ¡°Respecting others and what others say is what people remember him for.¡±

Still, not all employee reviews of Love¡¯s were glowing: One on Indeed was entitled ¡°Constantly overworked and underpaid.¡±

As per the report, the top spot could help Love¡¯s recruit workers at a time when many employers in retail and food service venues have struggled to find and retain staff. Before the pandemic, annual turnover for part-time retail employees hovered around 75%, according to data from recruitment firm Korn Ferry. Since then it¡¯s shot up to 95%. Love¡¯s does not disclose its employee turnover rate, Meyer said.
