    10. 10 Key Facts About ONR Ranked #1 of the Best Places to Work in the Navy #39 of the Best Places to Work in Federal govt #5 in Performance-based Awards & Advancement in Federal govt Named Most Admired Employer by 3 national magazines ? Black Engineer ? Hispanic Engineer ? Women of Color Here are some other aspects of ONR of which we are particularly proud ONRs most recent accolades easily place it on par with the top 50 companies to work for in the country and emphasize its outstanding and highly competitive quality of life, diversity and compensation programs. These honors also serve to underscore the Navys recent distinction as a Best Diversity Company for 2008 and its receipt of the prestigious Work Life Legacy Award from the Families and Work Institute.
