The Best Places to Work in Australia study surveyed more than 85,000 Australian employees across 160-plus companies to make the final list, which is based on direct and anonymous employee feedback from the Great Place to Work Trust Index© survey combined with a detailed culture audit of employee benefits, company values, professional development opportunities, recognition programs, communication processes, and community involvement.
