"How Starbucks Saved My Life," was a best-selling account published last year of how the company did just that for a former advertising man. Of course, the employees at the ubiquitous coffee shops -- more than 11,000 of them in 43 countries -- don't necessarily look for the company to save their lives. But they do value the company's excellent benefits (even if the stock is slumping). Starbucks is regularly named as one of Fortune's 100 Best Companies to Work For.
