AURORA, ON, May 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - Employees at Magna
have voiced their opinions and, based on their feedback, the
company has been selected to the Forbes magazine lists of America's
Best Employers and Canada's Best
Employers for 2017.
In the U.S., Magna ranked in the top 20 percent of the 500 best
large employers and also performed well in the auto segment,
ranking 5th out of 19 companies. In Canada, Magna is the top-ranked auto parts
company and 2nd in the automotive segment overall.
The Forbes list of America's Best Employers 2017 was compiled
based on an independent surveys from almost 30,000 U.S. employees
working for companies with at least 1,000 people in their U.S.
operations. Rankings are based entirely on employee feedback, with
the willingness to recommend one's own employer being the most
important element of the survey.
The process was similar in Canada, where 8,000 Canadian employees working
for large firms or institutions were asked to rate how likely they
were to recommend their own companies on a scale of 1 to 10. The
employees who took part in the survey were consulted anonymously
through several online access points, not via their employers.
"One of our most important goals is to create a dynamic and
transparent global workplace where our employees feel empowered and
inspired to reach their full potential," said Don Walker, Chief Executive Officer. "It's an
honor to receive the positive feedback from our employees and the
recognition from Forbes."
Magna was recently recognized by the employee-review website
Glassdoor as one of the best places to work in Canada. Divisions of the company in
Austria, Mexico and Russia were also recently named great places
to work by organizations in those countries.
Magna is always recruiting innovative and passionate individuals
to join its team. Visit http://www.magna.com/careers to see career
