别人家的公司：这6个职位值得你羡慕

《财富》“百佳雇主排行榜”的上榜企业就是传说中的“别人家的公司”。我们挨个询问了今年的上榜企业，看看他们公司里最有趣、最独特、最怪异的工作是什么。现在我们就来看看其中最古怪的几份工作。有些“百佳雇主”企业的员工能够享受无限的休假权，有的能享受到返还大学学费的待遇，还有的甚至能在名片上堂而皇之地印上“学问大师”几个字。

1.学问大师

公司：动视暴雪（第66名）

描述：这个头衔充分证明了沉迷网游的网瘾少年也是能找到正式工作的。动视暴雪专门聘请了两名历史学家，负责解决与暴雪产品有关的各种历史问题。他们在公司里被称为“学问大师”或“行走的百科全书”，不管何时围绕游戏出现了难解的历史问题，他们都要协助解决。据悉，他们已经编制了《魔兽世界》、《守望先锋》、《炉石传说》、《星际争霸》、《暗黑破坏神》和《暴风英雄》等所有暴雪游戏角色的参考手册、家族谱系和角色速查表。

2.感观技术员

公司：玛氏（第50名）

描述：“感观技术员”应该是玛氏公司最甜蜜的工作了。这家公司有好几个“试吃小组”，他们会与该公司的食品科学家紧密合作，确保玛氏的旗下品牌产品（如M&M和士力架等）能够达标。比如玛氏巧克力北美分公司的感观技术员丽莎·谢勒德就负责为公司在全世界范围内筛选样品，她每周都要评测60到90个样品的味道、质感和香气。

3.认证奶酪专家

公司：全食超市（第58名）

描述：这是一个奶酪从业者志在必得的头衔。所谓“认证奶酷专家”是发给业内少数制售奶酪的专业人才的称号。要想获得这一称号，就必须通过三个小时的专业考试。考试内容包括奶酪的储存与加工，奶酪的营养、分销、原材料和发酵流程以及奶酪的种类等等。全食超市目前拥有318名认证奶酪专家，比美国境内的其他任何一家公司都多。

4.创新与高级技术团队成员

公司：财捷集团

描述：不管是VR眼镜还是声控设备，总之这支团队研究的都是还没上市的超前科技。他们从事的都是一些先进技术的前沿研究，比如所谓的区块链技术和人工智能，以帮助小企业使用这些工具。这也是一项非常重要的工作。

5.色彩设计师

公司：REI

描述：REI公司的色彩设计师们必须理解“色彩的艺术与科学”。他们主要负责为该公司开发色彩战略、配色和讲好品牌故事。如果你对设计、造型和户外感兴趣，那它对你来说绝对是一个不错的选择。

6. Trailhead服务专职写手

公司：Salesforce（第8名）

描述：Salesforce有一支单独的团队负责掌握沟通的微妙艺术。Trailhead是该公司推出的一系列演示文稿，用以教会用户如何使用Salesforce。它将内容分割成了一个个容易消化的小部分，从而引导用户掌握学习路径（或学习模块）。而“Trailhead写手团队”则负责用对话式的幽默口吻撰写教学内容。Trailhead团队总编克里斯·杜阿尔特表示：“我们认为，如果内容不是充满了干巴巴的术语，而更像是由有血有肉的人写成的，则人们的学习效果会达到最好。”(财富中文网)
