Methodology
Comparably’s Best Places to Work by Region 2019 are derived from sentiment ratings provided by employees in the respective regions who anonymously rated their employers on Comparably.com between March 8, 2018 and March 8, 2019. There were no fees or costs associated with participating, nor was nomination required. To qualify, Large companies must have a minimum of 50 employee participants and Small/Mid-Size companies must have a minimum of 15 employee participants.
Winners were determined based on a series of 50+ structured and comprehensive workplace questions in core culture categories, including: Compensation, Leadership, Professional Development, Work-Life Balance, Perks & Benefits, to name a few (in Yes/No, True/False, 1-10 scale, and multiple choice formats). The answer to each question was given a numerical score and then compared to companies of similar size across the U.S. Additional weight was given to scores at companies with more participation from their employee base.
