US-headquartered software firm, Salesforce has been voted first place in both the UK and France on Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work list 2021.
A sample review for Salesforce in France said: “The integration is great, the work-life balance is respected by all.” A UK sample said: “Friendly culture that prioritises employees’ wellbeing and development, not just revenue generation.”
The UK’s list also featured Microsoft, Abcam, Google, Softcat, Apple, SAP, Facebook, Sky Betting & Gaming, AstraZeneca, American Express, Siemens, Dell and more.
The rankings are based on Glassdoor’s 2021 Employees’ Choice Awards, in which workers voluntarily provide anonymous feedback through company reviews.
Firms are rated between 1.0 (very dissatisfied) and 5.0 (very satisfied) across eight workplace attributes:
- Overall rating
- Career opportunities
- Compensation and benefits
- Culture and values
- Senior management
- Work-life balance
- Whether or not the employee would recommend the company to a friend
- Their opinion on its six-month business outlook
To date, 1.3m employers have been reviewed on the employer rating site and the average rating is 3.5.
