Fortune Best Companies To Work For 2011Fortune Magazine released their annual best companies to work for list, and Google is number one on the list again, four years running.

Google took the number one spot because, as the magazine writes:

The Internet juggernaut takes the Best Companies crown for the fourth time, and not just for the 100,000 hours of free massages it doled out in 2012. New this year are three wellness centers and a seven-acre sports complex, which includes a roller hockey rink; courts for basketball, bocce, and shuffle ball; and horseshoe pits.

Facebook is not on the 100 list but Microsoft is and ranks number 75. Yahoo and IAC, parent company of Ask.com, are also nowhere to be found on the list.
