The companies that made the final ranking share common values such as competitive salaries and benefits, equity and diversity, and a workplace culture that is open to new ideas, Newsweek said. Additionally, the companies provide comfortable working environments while encouraging career development and work-life balance.

Those employees tend to take fewer sick days, are less likely to experience burnout, and provide excellent service to their customers and colleagues.
