Fortune names five NEW sponsors ‘best places to work’

Five Network of Executive Women sponsors were named to Fortune magazine’s 2012 list of "100 Best Places to Work.” Recognized were Accenture (number 92), American Express (60), General Mills (63), Deloitte (67) and Starbucks (73).

Accenture was also recognized for its telecommuting policy. The firm ranked third of the 85 "Best Places to Work” companies that allow employees to telecommute or work at home at least 25 percent of the time. Eighty-one percent of Accenture’s employees are "regular” telecommuters.

American Express, General Mills and Deloitte also were recognized for offering fully paid sabbaticals, a benefit offered by nearly one-fourth of the "100 Best Places to Work.”
