We continue to discover companies where dogs are welcome. And we continue in the United States, a dog-friendly country par excellence, where canines have a very important presence in society... and in its companies.
Glassdoor
This job portal is one of the most solid and consulted platforms in the United States. It not only helps to find new jobs, but to do so with guarantees. On Glassdoor you can find a ranking of the best companies to work for, as well as real employee opinions, information on salaries, benefits... And even questions asked to candidates during the selection processes.
At Glassdoor, they take work and the work environment very seriously. Starting with their own. That's why it is, in itself, a place where people want to work and where, of course, pets have a privileged place. As they acknowledge, pets are not only adorable co-workers, but they facilitate breaks (both physical and mental); their presence facilitates the reconciliation of work and personal life and, in addition, they promote dynamism in the office.
Ben & Jerry’s
They not only make irresistible and delicious ice cream, for all tastes and known worldwide, but at Ben & Jerry's they have solid values: fair trade, peacebuilding, marriage equality, and climate justice. As a result, their company policy permits pets in the workplace. And that makes them even sweeter!
The dogs that frequent the Vermont office have a special section on their website, where information about the furry friends is provided and fictional interviews are conducted so that employees, customers, and curious people can get to know them better.
The Daily Show
This American satirical late-night show airs Monday through Thursday on Comedy Central. The program defines itself as a fake news program and satirizes recent news, political figures, organizations, and the program itself.
What is not fake news is that at The Daily Show, all employees can bring their ARISTODOGS to the studio, as explained by its current host, Trevor Noah.
Also, in this video you can see what the set and studio look like behind the scenes... when the dogs run free. An atypical and truly inspiring case, as pet-friendly companies are not abundant in the television world.
Zynga
This is a company that develops online social video games, founded in 2007 and located in San Francisco. Its name may not sound familiar to you, but what if we say they were the creators of the legendary game "Farmville"?
Dogs have always been part of this company, so much so that the name comes from the creator's dog and the logo includes a silhouette of it. Zynga not only offers benefits for employees, but direct benefits for their dogs. Such as health insurance, a dog park on the roof, and various treats. And what's more, some of the office dogs have their alter ego in Farmville. An example to follow, without a doubt!
