This recognition represents our commitment to creating a workplace where our team members feel valued, supported, and proud to be part of what we are building together.”
The ratings examine employee sentiment using factors that include quality of pay and benefits, work-life balance and flexibility, job and company stability, physical and psychological comfort, belongingness and esteem, and career opportunities and professional development.
“The 2026-2027 job market is rapidly shifting the way employers, employees and job seekers think about work, and subsequently, workplace culture,” said U.S. News Vice President of Careers Carly Chase. “The list spotlights companies that scored high on multiple metrics that promote a positive work environment and everyday employee experience.”
To calculate the Best Companies to Work For, U.S. News considered private companies that have at least 1,000 employees and more than $500 million in annual revenue, as defined by ZoomInfo, and the 5,000 largest publicly traded companies by market cap. All considered companies were required to have at least 75 Glassdoor reviews written between 2021-2025. Supported by insights from a panel of experts, the methodology also factors in data, including employee sentiment and regulatory enforcement data, gathered from U.S. News’ partners Revelio Labs, QUODD, ZoomInfo and Good Jobs First.
