微軟公司
公司總部所在地：美國華盛頓州雷德蒙德
2010年公司收益：699億美元
入選理由亮點：帶薪義工服務

????微軟（Microsoft）員工表達了他們希望為社會多做貢獻的想法之后，公司授予員工每年40個小時的帶薪時間從事志愿者服務，不論是每周在賒粥救濟處工作一天還是花一周時間修建孤兒院都可以。這家比爾?蓋茨領導下的公司還為初為人父母的員工提供支持：挪威分公司給家中有新生兒的員工相當長的產假時間；此外公司每季度都會組織“少兒午餐會”，邀請休假中的員工帶孩子一同赴宴，幫他們跟同事加強聯系并了解最新的公司動態。

????一名員工表示，“在微軟你可以盡情做自己。公司期待你擁有自己的觀點，你也會有很多機會去真正為公司和社會做貢獻。除非親身經歷，否則很難相信微軟員工所展現出的激情。”

What makes it so great?

????After Microsoft employees voiced their desire to contribute more to their communities, the software company gifted its workers with 40 paid hours a year to dedicate to volunteer activities -- ranging from working in a soup kitchen once a week to spending a week building an orphanage. Bill Gates' brainchild also supports employees who are new parents: In Norway, where maternity and paternity leaves are quite generous at the federal level, Microsoft hosts a "Junior Lunch" every quarter, allowing new parents on leave to come to the office for a lunch with their children, keeping the working parents in touch with their colleagues and up-to-date with office happenings.

????"Microsoft is a place where you can be yourself," says an employee. "It's expected that you have an opinion, and there are multiple opportunities to really make a contribution to the company and to society. Unless you work here, it is hard to believe the passion that people display."
