I haven't read Pamela Skillings' book Escape from Corporate America, but I like what I read in an interview over on Guy Kawasaki's blog about finding the right fit. She makes a great point that even the "best companies to work for" might not be best for YOU and that due diligence is essential!

Louise:
You are absolutely correct. The chemistry needs to be right, or the "best" company in the world may not be right for you. Due diligence on corporate culture is a must for determing if the chemistry is right.
Both job seekers and employers can avoid painful mistakes by paying a little attention to the chemistry before making commitemnts to one another.

Great point ... I remember interviewing once at a so-called 'fabulous place to work.' I couldn't get out of there fast enough!
