SALT LAKE CITY — Online retailer Overstock.com, Inc. Friday announced that it achieved a No. 1 ranking for employee satisfaction in a Glassdoor.com survey commissioned by Forbes magazine.

The company earned high marks for its fun, relaxed work culture with CEO and Chairman Patrick Byrne earning a 92 percent employee approval rating, the highest of any retailer on this list.

Glassdoor.com compiled a list of the "Best Retailers to Work For" for Forbes. The survey ranked employers based on criteria such as career opportunities, communication, compensation and benefits as well as employee morale.

Collected from current and employee feedback since June 2008, the study ranked brands that had at least 20 reviews or more over the past 30 months.

Overstock.com currently employs more than 1,500 people with its corporate office, two warehouses and two call centers located in the greater Salt Lake City area.
