Franklin Named to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's "Top 100 Workplaces" in southeastern Wisconsin for 2010.

May 23, 2010

Franklin Energy employees responded to a voluntary survey conducted by WorkplaceDynamics on behalf of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. As a result, Franklin Energy was named one of the Top 100 Workplaces in southeastern Wisconsin for 2010. There were 1,193 companies invited to participate. The firm ranked 24 in the "small company" category, having fewer than 150 employees. The firm employees more than 200 employees in multiple states; the survey was restricted to its southeastern Wisconsin workforce of 106.

The survey categorized statements into six areas: Direction, Execution, Career, Conditions, Managers, and Pay & Benefits. Employees were asked to rank their degree of agreement or disagreement with the statements. Some of the statements that Franklin Energy employees ranked highest on were:

  • I believe this organization is going in the right direction
  • This organization operates by strong values and ethics
  • My manager listens to me.

WorkplaceDynamics noted that results overall documented  a clear yearning for leadership, stability, organizational direction and even ethical principles that far outweighs the size of peoples' paychecks.
