I haven’t had the displeasure of working for any of these companies, but I do come into contact with at least one of these on a daily basis it seems.

In the bigger chart (including companies that don’t come in contact with the consumer on day to day transactions) from Glassdoor, the absolute worst CEO to work for is Krishna Srinivasan, the CEO of Frost & Sullivan.

The best CEO to work for is Ken Powell at General Mills.  Number 3 is Steve Jobs and number four is Eric Schmidt at Google.
