On Wednesday, Forbes released its list of Canada’s Best Employers, and Quebec had more than a few standouts.
Of the 300 companies on the list about 10% (29) were based right here in La Belle province. According to Forbes, the ranking was “based on a survey of more than 12,000 Canadians working for companies and institutions with at least 500 employees.”
Survey participants rated how likely they were to recommend their current employer. They also had the option to recommend employers other than their own.
Here were Quebec’s 10 highest-ranking companies.
