 List Methodology
 
 
 To identify the 100 Best Companies to Work For®, each year Fortune 
 partners with Great Place to Work to conduct the most extensive employee 
 survey in corporate America. The ranking is based on feedback from more 
 than 232,000 employees at Great Place to Work–Certified™ companies with 
 more than 1,000 employees. Winning a spot on this list indicates the 
 company has distinguished itself from peers by creating a great place to 
 work for employees – measured and ranked through analysis of the results 
 of Great Place to Work's Trust Index© survey and Culture Audit© 
 questionnaire.
 
 
 Through the Trust Index©, employees anonymously assess their 
 workplace, including the honesty and quality of communication by 
 managers, degree of support for employees&#39; personal and professional 
 lives and the authenticity of relationships with colleagues. Results 
 from the survey are highly reliable, having a 95% confidence level and a 
 margin of error of 5% or less. Companies&#39; results on the Trust Index© 
 survey are compared to peer organizations of like size and complexity. 
 The Culture Audit© includes detailed questions about 
 benefits, programs and practices.
 
 
 To be considered for the Best Workplaces lists, companies must become 
 Great Place to Work-Certified™. Details are available at <a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" href="http://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.greatplacetowork.com%2Fcertification&amp;esheet=51523310&amp;newsitemid=20170309005730&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.greatplacetowork.com%2Fcertification&amp;index=5&amp;md5=00af16e97ef7c14b88b06c9eb2faa01d" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">https://www.greatplacetowork.com/certification</a>.
