7.万豪国际集团（Marriott）

    收入：127.8亿美元

    总部所在地：马里兰州贝塞斯达

    员工人数：203685

    今年8月份，该酒店集团首席执行官阿恩•索伦森无视传统商业智慧，在一篇博客文章中称，在万豪国际集团，客户并不是第一位的。他写道：“在万豪，我们有不同的口号。虽然我们和所有企业一样重视我们的客户，但我们的员工是第一位的。”该公司的理念是，如果公司善待员工，员工必然善待客人。该公司正在不断推出全球性计划来实现这一目标。今年早些时候推出“分享您的空间”的活动，鼓励全集团员工提交各自工作环境的照片。员工每提交一张照片，其所在连锁酒店在一项随机抽奖活动中就多一个被抽名额。该活动将抽出八家酒店进行工作场所升级改造。该公司收到超过17000张照片并已经将许多照片与万豪招聘网页上的工作说明相匹配，以便让潜在的新员工浏览在公司的工作与生活状态。

    In August, the hospitality company’s CEO, Arne Sorenson, defied conventional business wisdom when he revealed in a blog post that at Marriott, the customer does not come first. “At Marriott we have a different mantra,” he wrote. “While we value our customer just as much as any business, our employees—we usually call them our associates—come first.” The idea is that if the company treats its employees well, that hospitality will inevitably trickle down to the customer. The company is constantly drumming up new global initiatives to meet this goal. One earlier this year was called the “Share Your Space” campaign, a program that encouraged employees across the organization to submit photos of their work environments. Each photo submitted earned the Marriott location an additional entry into a random lottery drawing for a chance to win one of eight workplace upgrades. The company received over 17,000 photos and has since paired many of them with job descriptions on the Marriott Careers site so potential new hires can browse work-life at the company.
