HCM CITY — Anphabe, a career network of management professionals, and market research firm INTAGE Vietnam on Thursday announced the list of 100 Best Places to Work in Việt Nam for last year.

Vinamilk gained top spot followed by Nestlé Vietnam, Viettel, Vietcombank, Coca-Cola Vietnam, and Samsung.

The survey measures employers’ brand attractiveness by polling employees.

This year Anphabe and INTAGE Vietnam did the annual Việt Nam Best Places to Work Survey by measuring the brands of 674 enterprises in 25 industries.

In a new category called the Future Ready Enterprise Award, Vinamilk, AIA Life Insurance (Vietnam), Hòa Bình Construction Group, ABB LTD, and KMS Technology were the winners.

It is based on companies’ readiness to change, employee capabilities for the future and the management role of leaders.

Another new category has been instituted this year to honour the TOP 50 Vietnamese enterprises in terms of brands.

The winners were Vingroup, FE Credit, PNJ, Nutifood, FPT Software, Hoàn Mỹ Medical Corporation, and FLC Group.

The survey also features 50 in-depth interviews with CEOs and human resource officials from leading companies.

Now its fifth year, it has become a prestigious source of information for human resource trends in Việt Nam, Thanh Nguyễn, CEO of Anphabe, said.

The accompanying activities offer an opportunity for company executives to learn, share experiences and improve their workforce, she said.

Anphabe and the Việt Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry on March 22 launched the Asia HRD Awards in the country.
