Ad agency Arnold Worldwide, the Boston Consulting Group, and Massachusetts General Hospital were among local entities that made Working Mother magazine's nationwide 100 best companies list in 2007, Working Mother said today.

Harvard University and the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co. also made the list, which did not rank companies but listed them alphabetically.

According to Working Mother, its list was based on an application of 575 questions, including questions about compensation, child-care, and flexibility programs.

"The 100 best companies are shifting their corporate cultures dramatically," Carol Evans, chief executive and president of Working Mother Media, said in a statement. "They used to focus on solving employee's work-life balance problems, but now they're creating workplaces that help employees value downtime, take care of their own wellness, and keep their workload manageable."
