Bethesda, MD -- Every year since 1998, Marriott International, Inc. (NYSE: MAR) has been named to FORTUNE magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” list, earning the company a place on the magazine’s “all star” list. Marriott was number two among companies with more than 100,000 employees, and was ranked 78th overall.

At the heart of Marriott’s unique culture lies a strong spirit to serve. Marriott owes its success to the associates who deliver legendary customer service and take great care of their fellow employees, their neighbors in the community and the environment.

“As always, we’re excited to be named to this elite list,” said David Rodriguez, Marriott’s executive vice president of global human resources. “We're proud to provide our employees with a great place to work, and we strive to create an inclusive environment that enhances their growth and productivity.”
