The results showed a variety of public-sector organizations placed in the top 20, above businesses such as Ernst & Young, Facebook Inc. and Bell Canada. Higher-ranked organizations like the Canadian government, Canada Revenue Agency and the Bank of Canada were all viewed as places with stronger job security.
