Statistics based on direct recommendations
Tens of thousands of employees from more than 2,000 companies spanning 27 industry sectors participated in the online survey conducted from September to the start of November last year.
The evaluation was conducted based on two criteria: employees’ willingness to recommend their employer to friends and family, and to recommend to other employers within their industry.
Additionally, employees were asked more than 50 questions on work-related factors like salary satisfaction, work-life balance, and potential for career development.
