which to work indicates those companies employ about one and a half million<br>
employees, and they plan to hire about 43,000 employees this year. That's a<br>
growth rate of about 2.86 percent.<br>
<br>
The list indicates those 100 companies have 303 work locations in 50 states.<br>
<br>
Idaho is one of fourteen states that have no work sites for those companies.<br>
<br>
Why is that the case? Why can't Idaho attract any business representation from<br>
any top 100 company? What does this reflect about Idaho's characteristics?<br>
