Standards! Yes. That’s what it takes for an indigenous firm to emerge the top company in Nigeria to work for, for this year, 2015. Nigerian professionals have spoken and to a large extent, I believe this counts. Young people/professionals are found where work is innovative, pay is good and there’s an everyday drive to become better at any given time. In fact, that is one of the reasons they stay longer in a firm.

Jobberman and Ventures Africa have released the 100 Best Places to Work in Nigeria 2015 and it is quite impressive to see Konga.com take the lead while others like Drugfield Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Insight Communications Ltd, NEMA, Authentic Value Nigeria Ltd and Channels TV follow closely on the list. But first, let’s get to know the Methodology use for this survey

Methodology

In collaboration with Jobberman, Nigeria’s largest jobs search engine, Ventures Africa conducted a two-stage survey to find the best places to work for Nigeria’s Millenials. The first stage comprised 335 companies with over 6,000 respondents from entry level to executive level between the ages of 20 to 35, 65 percent of whom were gainfully employed at the time of the survey in 2014.

The index was calculated by the weighted average of each respondent’s top five companies. This was selected using parameters such as company culture, dream company, staff welfare, gender equality, government institution, company’s prestige, salary, and non-salary benefits.

The second stage of the survey accounted for the level of satisfaction and happiness of employees. This index was calculated by the weighted average of each response, which was selected using parameters such as level of satisfaction, salary consideration, level of contentment, career growth, concerns outside work, and work-life balance.

For the first stage of the survey, the oil and gas companies were once again highly ranked in a majority of the categories. Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) was first in all but one category – “Government Institution to Work For” – where the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) came out on top. However, telecommunications and fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies also fared well. MTN and Nigerian Breweries emerged at the forefront among organisations in these categories. The list which follows reflects the public’s perception of firms from different sectors. It also illuminates the perception of millennials who work in these organisations and partook in the survey. This year, FMCG dominated, while firms from banking, telecommunication, oil and gas, and technology were represented significantly. Konga Online Shopping Ltd was voted the number one company to work for in Nigeria, based on employee response.
