United States Military Ranks Higher Than Disney as Happiest Place to Work

Military.jpg Despite owning the tagline “Happiest Place on Earth,” Disney does not employ the happiest workers in the United States. Disney and other well-known companies rank lower than all four branches of the military and the National Guard according to a new survey for the “most blissful places to work.” Growth opportunity, benefits and job security were ranked higher for the military. Companies could learn from the military’s unique programs that provide opportunities to grow and improve skills, creating a happier work environment.

Bradly Brummel, a psychology professor at the University of Tulsa, stated that “despite challenges that may occur when serving our country, including the possibility of going to war, the military provides many of the essential elements to finding happiness at work, including having a meaningful impact on the world, having true camaraderie with your co-workers and having the opportunities to develop skills.”
