As employers try to figure out how best to recruit and retain the best employees, a CultureIQ/HR.com study finds many believe the answer lies in the company's culture.
According to "Employee Culture: A Closer Look — HR.com Insights," 73 percent of respondents believe a great corporate culture gives their organizations a competitive edge, resulting in higher employee engagement and a stronger brand.
