Study methodology

(*) The 23 criteria used on the platform to evaluate companies are split between four areas:
  • working conditions, rating elements such as salary, benefit packages, and stress and pressure levels;
  • career, rating elements such as interest in tasks and projects, recognition from managers, career prospects, and career mobility;
  • company management, rating elements such as transparency and working atmosphere;
  • company culture, rating elements such as employee involvement and company values.
Overall company ratings are calculated by taking an average of the ratings received across these criteria. Only companies with over 20 ratings were included.
