To create the annual ranking, Forbes partnered with market research firm to survey more than 245,000 employees working for organizations with at least 500 U.S.-based workers. Survey respondents across all 50 states and Washington, D.C., rated their likelihood to recommend their current employer on a zero-to-10 scale. They also evaluated workplaces on key operational criteria, including fair compensation, company culture, career growth opportunities and institutional action on serious workplace issues.
Additionally, participants evaluated former employers from the past two years and recognized peers within their industry. Final scores incorporated these direct responses along with historical survey data from the previous three years.
