How positive workers feel about their future at the company, career achievement, how much employer values align with employee values, respect at all levels, and the level of collaboration at the firm were the five critical areas measured to gauge employee sentiment. In addition, areas such as inclusion, diversity, equity and belonging, and company response and adaptability to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as return-to-office rules, were identified and analyzed in relation to the five critical areas measured.

"As a result of 'The Great Resignation,' more companies recognize the importance of focusing on employee satisfaction to not only attract but retain top talent," said Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief, Newsweek. "The businesses on this year's list clearly demonstrated that commitment."

Dell Technologies moved from second place last year to top this year's ranking. The company has been recognized for their workplace culture which prioritizes listening to team member feedback. Also contributing to Dell's top spot is their long-standing flexible work environment which is focused on outcomes – enabling team members to thrive both personally and professionally. The company also provides skills training and development opportunities for team members, giving them the tools to be their best and do their best work.

"We're focused on building a workplace where team members can thrive both personally and professionally so they can be their best and do their best work," said Jenn Saavedra, Chief Human Resources Officer at Dell Technologies. "To us, that means ensuring team members feel included and celebrated for who they are while helping them find balance, connection, and achievement. We love seeing team members grow their careers here at Dell – learn new skills, build relationships, and above all, follow their passions. It's this type of support that fosters our innovation at Dell as we work together toward a common purpose to build technologies that drive human progress."

"The companies on this list represent the best at placing love at the center of their employee's experience," said Louis Carter, CEO, Best Practice Institute. "The number of applications this year and analysis of survey data reinforces our original findings that love is the strongest predictor of the strength of a company's culture, employee engagement, and satisfaction."

Methodology
To identify the top 100 companies for the Newsweek ranking, companies were evaluated and scored as follows: 35 percent of the initial score was based on employee survey responses; 25 percent was derived from analysis of external public ratings from sites such as Comparably, Careerbliss, Glassdoor, Indeed and Google; and 40 percent came from direct interviews with and written responses from company officials. Newsweek then conducted additional research into every company on the list, as well as the top runners up, to determine the final list of 100 companies and their ranking. (The list includes both U.S. firms and companies with a strong U.S. presence that are based overseas.)
