For those looking for companies with the best work-life balance, a new study conducted by Hennessey Digital examined Glassdoor data in the U.S. to find top employers. The researchers narrowed down employers to those with more than 5,000 global employees, at least 1,000 U.S. reviews, and more than 3.5 stars out of 5 on Glassdoor.
Then they ranked the employers by average work-life rating, as shown by employee feedback on Glassdoor.
The best company for work-life balance was LinkedIn, with an average rating of 4.32 out of 5. Employees gave the job search platform an average score of 4.46 for its culture and values and 4.39 for compensation and benefits.
