Job review site Glassdoor has released its list of the “best places to work” for 2024, and several technology companies managed to take the top spots.
There was particular interest in Nvidia, which was named the second best company overall, and Apple, which managed to claim a spot on the list after falling in 2023.
Management consulting giant Bain & Company took the top spot, but there were high rankings for other notable tech firms including Service Now (No. 3), Procore Technologies (No. 5), VMware (No. 7) and Deltek (#8).
Glassdoor's Best Places to Work
Outside of the top 10, there were also high rankings for companies like Adobe (#15), Microsoft (#18), and Google (#26), with 31 tech companies in the top 100 in total, a drop from 41 in 2023.
9to5Mac noted that Salesforce, Intel, Netflix and Yahoo dropped out of the top 100 list in 2024 and that once again there was no place for Meta. Newcomers to the list include Lenovo and Samsara.
Nvidia came in second overall thanks to its average rating of 4.7/5 over the past year, just 0.1 behind Bain.
“Working life is changing rapidly and professionals are turning to Glassdoor to share their experiences of working for some of the world's most competitive employers,” said Christian Sutherland-Wong, CEO of Glassdoor.
“The Best Places to Work award is a stark reminder of the power of Glassdoor, from providing professionals with career insights and real-time conversations about all things work and life, to providing employers with feedback to improve. “Glassdoor has evolved to ensure that transparency is not a fad, but rather a critical component in the future of work.”
The study follows recent figures showing that tech layoffs have continued apace. In 2022, around 165,000 tech workers were laid off, followed by more than 262,000 in 2023 and more than 3,000 in the first two weeks of January 2024 alone (via layoffs.fyi).
