Tech companies lead the way when it comes to the bast places to work in the UK, according to new study using feedback from employees.
The research was carried out by employee development platform Zensai, using data from recruitment site Glassdoor.
They looked at every company with employees in the UK with more than 100 reviews on the platform and rated them on eight factors: culture and values, diversity and inclusion, senior management rating, career opportunities, how happy employees are to work for the company, whether they would recommend it to a friend, work-life balance, compensation and benefits
Each factor was weighted and used to create an index score out of 100 for each company, upon which the final ranking was based.
Rasmus Holst, Zensai CEO said: “It's inspiring to see organisations like Octopus Energy and Bain & Company leading the way in fostering positive work environments. It is also interesting to see so many tech and software companies show up in this top ten listing of the best places to work in the UK.
“While salary is important, employees clearly also prioritise their well-being, as well as company culture and values when choosing where to work. Recognising and supporting what matters most to employees not only benefits the workforce but also contributes to the overall success of the company. We hope the study helps inspire more organisations to prioritise their employees and continue making the UK a great placeto work.”
Here are the top 10.
