RESEARCH ASSIGNMENT
Background
Knowing what benefits are offered by the competition in an industry is an important part of the human resource manager’s job. A good benefit package can be a big factor in the hiring decision for many potential employees. Many companies use the phrase “Complete Benefit Package” in their new-employee recruiting literature.
Procedure
Your assignment is to evaluate the benefit packages of three similar companies: AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon. Which, in your opinion, offers the most comprehensive benefit package, and why? Compare each company’s history and demographics as well as the employee benefits it offers. Your report should include evidence (such as financials, employee turnover rate, benefit cost, and so on) to support why the company you selected has the best “Complete Benefit Package.”
