The market research firm Statista collaborated with Forbes to conduct its yearly rankings, which are based on a nationwide poll of over 160,000 workers in companies with 500 or more employees. On a scale of 0 to 10, respondents—both current and past staff members as well as those who were acquainted with the university—were asked to rank and suggest employers based on factors like wage fairness, culture, prospects for growth, and responsiveness to grave concerns like harassment.
