Methodology
- This set of Comparably Awards is derived from sentiment ratings provided by employees in Product and Design departments 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 employee feedback to a combination of workplace culture questions in nearly 20 categories, including compensation, leadership, and co-workers to professional development opportunities, work-life balance, and perks and benefits. Questions were asked in a variety of data-driven formats – in yes/no, true/false, 1-10 scale, multiple choice – providing an accurate and comprehensive look at what it’s really like to work at companies.
- The answer to each question was given a numerical score and then compared to companies of similar size. For fairness and statistical significance, additional weight was given to companies with more participation from their employee base.
- There were no fees or costs associated with participating, nor was nomination required. The final data set was compiled from thousands of ratings on Large and SMB companies with product/design departments. To qualify, Large companies (more than 500 employees) must have met a minimum of 25 employee participants and SMB companies needed 15 employee participants.
