Forbes and research firm Statista surveyed 30,000 American employees who were working at companies with at least 5,000 employees. The survey asked respondents to rate, on a scale of zero to 10, how likely they’d be to recommend their employer to others.

Specifically, the survey asked questions about innovative working environments, generous perks, professional development and engagement, high levels of motivation among their workers and recommending their workplace to others.
