《財富》“百佳雇主排行榜”的上榜企業(yè)就是傳說中的“別人家的公司”。我們挨個詢問了今年的上榜企業(yè)，看看他們公司里最有趣、最獨特、最怪異的工作是什么?，F(xiàn)在我們就來看看其中最古怪的幾份工作。有些“百佳雇主”企業(yè)的員工能夠享受無限的休假權(quán)，有的能享受到返還大學(xué)學(xué)費的待遇，還有的甚至能在名片上堂而皇之地印上“學(xué)問大師”幾個字。

1.學(xué)問大師

公司：動視暴雪（第66名）

描述：這個頭銜充分證明了沉迷網(wǎng)游的網(wǎng)癮少年也是能找到正式工作的。動視暴雪專門聘請了兩名歷史學(xué)家，負責解決與暴雪產(chǎn)品有關(guān)的各種歷史問題。他們在公司里被稱為“學(xué)問大師”或“行走的百科全書”，不管何時圍繞游戲出現(xiàn)了難解的歷史問題，他們都要協(xié)助解決。據(jù)悉，他們已經(jīng)編制了《魔獸世界》、《守望先鋒》、《爐石傳說》、《星際爭霸》、《暗黑破壞神》和《暴風(fēng)英雄》等所有暴雪游戲角色的參考手冊、家族譜系和角色速查表。

2.感觀技術(shù)員

公司：瑪氏（第50名）

描述：“感觀技術(shù)員”應(yīng)該是瑪氏公司最甜蜜的工作了。這家公司有好幾個“試吃小組”，他們會與該公司的食品科學(xué)家緊密合作，確?，斒系钠煜缕放飘a(chǎn)品（如M&M和士力架等）能夠達標。比如瑪氏巧克力北美分公司的感觀技術(shù)員麗莎·謝勒德就負責為公司在全世界范圍內(nèi)篩選樣品，她每周都要評測60到90個樣品的味道、質(zhì)感和香氣。

3.認證奶酪專家

公司：全食超市（第58名）

描述：這是一個奶酪從業(yè)者志在必得的頭銜。所謂“認證奶酷專家”是發(fā)給業(yè)內(nèi)少數(shù)制售奶酪的專業(yè)人才的稱號。要想獲得這一稱號，就必須通過三個小時的專業(yè)考試?？荚噧?nèi)容包括奶酪的儲存與加工，奶酪的營養(yǎng)、分銷、原材料和發(fā)酵流程以及奶酪的種類等等。全食超市目前擁有318名認證奶酪專家，比美國境內(nèi)的其他任何一家公司都多。

4.創(chuàng)新與高級技術(shù)團隊成員

公司：財捷集團

描述：不管是VR眼鏡還是聲控設(shè)備，總之這支團隊研究的都是還沒上市的超前科技。他們從事的都是一些先進技術(shù)的前沿研究，比如所謂的區(qū)塊鏈技術(shù)和人工智能，以幫助小企業(yè)使用這些工具。這也是一項非常重要的工作。

5.色彩設(shè)計師

公司：REI

描述：REI公司的色彩設(shè)計師們必須理解“色彩的藝術(shù)與科學(xué)”。他們主要負責為該公司開發(fā)色彩戰(zhàn)略、配色和講好品牌故事。如果你對設(shè)計、造型和戶外感興趣，那它對你來說絕對是一個不錯的選擇。

6. Trailhead服務(wù)專職寫手

公司：Salesforce（第8名）

描述：Salesforce有一支單獨的團隊負責掌握溝通的微妙藝術(shù)。Trailhead是該公司推出的一系列演示文稿，用以教會用戶如何使用Salesforce。它將內(nèi)容分割成了一個個容易消化的小部分，從而引導(dǎo)用戶掌握學(xué)習(xí)路徑（或?qū)W習(xí)模塊）。而“Trailhead寫手團隊”則負責用對話式的幽默口吻撰寫教學(xué)內(nèi)容。Trailhead團隊總編克里斯·杜阿爾特表示：“我們認為，如果內(nèi)容不是充滿了干巴巴的術(shù)語，而更像是由有血有肉的人寫成的，則人們的學(xué)習(xí)效果會達到最好?！?財富中文網(wǎng))
