Tech companies dominate Glassdoor Best Places to Work in 2022
ServiceNow, Immediate Media Company, Abcam and Meta were among the Top Ten winners of Glassdoor’s Employees’ Choice Awards, honouring the Best Places to Work in 2022 across the UK. Unlike other workplace awards, the Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Awards are based on the input of employees who voluntarily provide anonymous feedback on Glassdoor by completing a company review about their job, work environment and employer over the past year.
Tech companies dominate the list with 19 winners, including seven in the top 10. Other industries represented include finance, manufacturing, travel & tourism, construction, media, retail, restaurants and more.
Said Christian Sutherland-Wong, Glassdoor Chief Executive Officer: “The world of work is rapidly evolving, fueled by the pandemic and now millions of workers reevaluating their expectations of employers. This year’s Best Places to Work winners are leading the way by listening and responding to employee feedback and reimagining the employee experience to truly put their people first.
"It’s inspiring to see these employers step up during the pandemic to expand and grow company cultures where employees feel supported and valued in and out of work. Congratulations to all of this year’s Employees’ Choice Award winners.”
