Too often top companies hear their best talent say, "I love my work, my clients, the company—I have to leave." Smart women positioned for the corporate fast track say goodbye to firms they adore every day because the benefits and perks aren't enough to help them in their personal quests, whether that's more time for Mommy and Me classes or finally getting that MBA degree. Designing innovative programs and improving upon the old standbys that help each employee in her pursuit of happiness is what these Hall of Fame companies are all about. They've earned a place on our 100 Best list for 15 years or more, and this year we induct two new honorees: Baptist Health South Florida and Genentech. The winners:

Here's what top female executives at our Hall of Fame companies say is the benefit that won them over.
