Best Places to Start a Career

Businessweek released its list of the best places to start a career. All I have to say is read the last two words in my blog title: be wary. I don't really like these type of lists. It really is a person-by-person basis as to whether someone likes one company over the other to launch a career. What they should really be doing is not focusing on the new hires but talking to workers who are further along their careers and who may have started at one of the "top companies to start a career". I can bet a good number of these people are not at the same company. It would be worth asking them how they thought the company they started with benefited them at their current spot in their career if at all.
