Methodology
Fortune partners annually with Great Place to Work® to conduct
the most extensive employee survey in corporate America to identify
the 100 Best Companies to Work For ®. Two-thirds of a company's
survey score is based on the results of the Trust Index© Employee
Survey, which is sent to a random sample of employees from each
company. This survey asks questions related to employees' attitudes
about management's credibility, overall job satisfaction, and
camaraderie. The other third is based on responses to the Culture
Audit©, which includes detailed questionnaires about pay and
benefit programs and a series of open-ended questions about hiring
practices, methods of internal communication, training, recognition
programs and diversity efforts.
