Methodology
- This set of Comparably Awards are derived from sentiment ratings provided by employees who anonymously rated their employers on Comparably.com during a 12-month period (March 22, 2020 through March 22, 2021).
- Winners were determined based on a combination of questions below. The answer to each question was given a numerical score and then compared to companies of similar size. Outlook measures responses to questions such as,
- “How confident are you about the future success of your company?”
- “Are you typically excited about going to work each day?”
- “How likely are you to recommend working at your company to a friend?” This eNPS (employee Net Promoter Score) is rated on a -100 to 100 basis, where -100 to -10 is a poor score, -10 to 20 is good/average, and anything above 20 is excellent.
- There were no fees or costs associated with participating, nor was nomination required. The final data set was compiled from 10 million ratings across 60,000 North American companies.
- To qualify, Large companies (more than 500 employees) must have met a minimum of 75 employee participants and Small/Mid-Size companies (fewer than 500 employees) needed a minimum of 25 employee participants. For fairness and statistical significance, additional weight was given to companies with more participation from their employee base.
