Imagine you got to work in a village-sized campus with your nearly 6,000 coworkers. Some of your company's perks included a soccer field, daycare, tons of beautiful artwork, a pool, manicures, and as much food as you could ever want.
Well, that's just a day at work for SAS employees.
"SAS has always believed that if you treat people well, keep them challenged with interesting work, and respect them and their contributions, they will do their best work for you," Shannon Heath, senior communications specialist at SAS, told Business Insider. "Simply put - treat employees like they make a difference, and they will make a difference."
Back in the 1960s, SAS began as a humble software development project at North Carolina State University.
