About Comparably Awards

Comparably’s annual Best Places to Work series recognizes top-rated CEOs and companies in 16 categories throughout the year. Each list is compiled using Comparably’s proprietary algorithm which takes into account the quality and quantity of ratings during the 12-month eligibility period, with additional weight given to companies with more participation from their employee base relative to company size. At a minimum, large companies (more than 500 employees) need 75 employee ratings while small/midsize companies (500 or fewer employees) need at least 25. Employees answer questions in 20 core culture metrics (compensation, leadership, teams, outlook, professional development, work-life balance, perks & benefits, and more). The answer to each question is then given a score and compared to companies of similar size. Complete methodology can be found here: https://www.comparably.com/awards/rules
