Every year Forbes publishes the World’s Best Employers List through independent market research to identify the top 700 companies that offer exciting working and a positive environment, opportunities for training and career advancement, employee benefits, and employee-centric and workplace diversity. Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to create the seventh annual list of the World’s Best Employers this year.
