Fortune: 5 San Francisco Companies Among Best To Work For

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — The business magazine Fortune, in partnership with analytics firm Great Place to Work, has released its annual list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For in the United States.

Hilton took home the top spot on the list for the second year in a row, with Ultimate Software and Wegmans Food Markets rounding out the top three.

San Francisco had 5 of the best companies to work for in the nation, according to Fortune. In order of their appearance on the list, the companies are Salesforce, Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, Orrick, Dropbox, and Atlassian.

Three Peninsula, 6 South Bay and one company in the East Bay also made the list. From the Peninsula: Cooley, Box, and Genentech. In the South Bay: Cisco, Intuit, Nvidia, Adobe, Cadence, and Nutanix. And in the East Bay is Workday.

To be considered for the list, companies submitted an application detailing over 200 data points describing their HR programs and practices. Great Place to Work, an analytics firm that has partnered with Fortune to create the list for the past 23 years, then conducted an anonymous survey of each company's workforce.

In total, 85 percent of the evaluation was based on what employees reported in the survey about “their experiences of trust and reaching their full human potential as part of their organization,” according to a methodology section for the rankings on Fortune’s website.

Companies need to employ at least 1,000 U.S. employees to be considered for the list, and government agencies aren’t eligible.
