Throughout my working years, I've had the chance to work with a variety of companies in Houston. And while some weren't great, others definitely stood out and made me appreciate my job.
I thought it would be helpful to make a list of the best companies to work for in Houston based on my experience. After reviewing 7 different companies, I'm happy to report that there are some really good options for anyone looking to find their next career move in the Bayou City. Stay tuned for my take on what makes these seven companies the ideal places to find employment.
Houston
The city of Houston is one of the most diverse cities in the country and provides citizens with thousands of opportunities. With a strong economy, affordable housing, and an abundance of job opportunities, no matter what industry you’re looking to break into, you’re bound to find something that fits your skillset.
I'm especially impressed with how many great companies there are within the greater Houston area. From healthcare companies such as MD Anderson and Memorial Hermann to energy companies like ExxonMobil and Shell Oil, there's something for anyone interested in working for a top-tier company.
Not only that, but Houston also offers some more unique options for those seeking something different. Technology giants such as Hewlett Packard Enterprise, BMC Software, and Oracle are headquartered here which make the city an ideal location for tech-savvy professionals. The same can be said of engineering firms like Fluor Corporation and Jacobs Engineering Group.
What's even better is that these businesses have offices all over the world so they offer plenty of international career opportunities — perfect if you're looking to explore other countries too!
Overall, I'd highly recommend Houston for any job seekers looking to work at great companies. Whether you want to stick close to home or travel abroad, there's something here for everyone!
