To calculate this ranking, WorkplaceDynamics worked with 30 publishing partners to poll over one million employees across the United States. These employees were from 872 large companies, with at least 1,000 or more workers within the company, and over 5,000 organizations. Companies were also allowed to apply directly to this the national Top Workplaces program. The employee survey basically allowed the workers to rate their companies, as they are the ones working the jobs within it.
