For companies that made the lists, nine in 10 employees said they wanted to stay with their employer long-term, compared to just two-thirds of employees at a typical workplace of a similar size, according to the release.

Also, winning companies had more employees who reported giving extra effort on the job — 98 percent for small and 95 percent for medium-sized companies, compared to 60 percent and 62 percent for typical workplaces of the same sizes.

Great Place to Work said both lists are highly competitive and based on validated annual survey data from over 1.3 million U.S. employees. Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of employees’ experiences.
Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer a positive employee experience regardless of job, role, work status, or other demographic identifiers.
