These are Canada’s Best Employers for 2020 according to Forbes

Forbes released its list of the best employers in Canada for 2020, and things are looking kind of fun! At least in Eastern Canada they are, which absolutely dominated the top 15 or so companies. But, the criteria for the evaluation might be a factor.

You see, Forbes required that in order to be evaluated, companies had to have at least 500 employees. So, that excludes a fair number of smaller companies that might have very satisfied employees. Basically, that super cute cafe down the street from you wasn’t even considered. Rude.
