The annual list, produced in partnership with Statista, evaluates privately held U.S. startups based on employer reputation, employee satisfaction and company growth. According to Forbes, more than 2,700 companies were assessed using a data-driven methodology that analyzed media sentiment, online employee reviews, compensation and benefits policies, and two-year growth indicators including headcount and hiring activity. Approximately seven million data points were considered in determining the final list of companies.
