Boone, Iowa: Fareway Stores, Inc. has been named one of America's Top Workplaces by WorkplaceDynamics. Fareway was ranked #110 nationwide among organizations with more than 1,000 employees that participated in regional top workplaces programs.
The National Top Workplaces list was determined solely by feedback gathered through an objective employee survey. The survey was conducted by WorkplaceDynamics, LLP. Fareway also participated in The Des Moines Register's Top Workplaces 2012 program, where it was ranked sixth.
The survey uses a proprietary set of 22 questions to rank companies. The survey data showed that employees most want to work at companies with high levels of organizational health. Companies that set a clear direction for their future, execute well, and bring real meaning to work are the healthiest.
