It highlights the best companies to grow a career in 9 industries in the U.S. and is built using a methodology backed by exclusive LinkedIn data.

• Company stability: Tracks attrition over the past year as well as percentage of employees that stay at the company at least three years.
• External opportunity: Looks at Recruiter outreach across employees at the company.
• Company affinity: Tracks connection volume among employees, controlled for the company size.
• Gender diversity: Measures gender parity within a company.
• Educational background: Examines the variety of educational attainment among employees, from no degree up to Ph.D. levels, reflecting a commitment to recruiting a wide range of professionals.
