The 100 Best Companies to Work for in 2022
If the Great Resignation has you thinking about job-hopping, Glassdoor may be able to help you find your next gig. Its annual 100 Best Places to Work study is hot off the press for 2022. Top of the list? Nvidia.
Glassdoor bases its rankings on feedback from current and former employees who've posted anonymous reviews to its site over the past year. The rating numbers Glassdoor actually publishes are pretty limited, so you'll see a lot of the same overall numerical scores. When pressed for how Glassdoor then ranks companies with the same scores, it says it uses a "proprietary ranking algorithm."
Okay, that's a little vague, but the algorithm calculates a ranking not only based on employees' overall numbers but also across several sub-ranks, including satisfaction, CEO leadership, career opportunities, and compensation and benefits, among others. The 100 companies with the best ratings make the list.
Among the top 100 large companies, Nvidia nabbed the winning spot from Bain & Company, which held it last year. Glassdoor also reported 36 newcomers to the top 100—several new tech companies among them, including electric vehicle maker Rivian and help desk software developer ServiceNow. Overall, the list included 40 technology companies with well-known names such as Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Zoom. If you're worried about hitching your wagon to a new arrival, top-ranked Nvidia has made the list for the last eight years, while Apple and Google have been there for the last 14.
Among the companies with lowered rankings this year from 2021 were some notable names, including Meta, which nose-dived from number 11 down to number 47 this year—presumably due to all the public scrutiny and negative press it suffered in 2021.
