Methodology

Our methodology uses LinkedIn data to rank companies based on seven pillars that have been shown to lead to career progression: ability to advance; skills growth; company stability; external opportunity; company affinity; gender diversity and educational background. Ability to advance tracks employee promotions within a company and when they move to a new company, based on standardized job titles. Skills growth looks at how employees across the company are gaining skills while employed at the company, using standardized LinkedIn skills. Company stability tracks attrition over the past year, as well as the percentage of employees that stay at the company at least three years. External opportunity looks at Recruiter outreach across employees at the company, signaling demand for workers coming from these companies. Company affinity, which seeks to measure how supportive a company’s culture is, looks at connection volume on LinkedIn among employees, controlled for company size. Gender diversity measures gender parity within a company. Finally, educational background examines the variety of educational attainment among employees, from no degree up to Ph.D. levels, reflecting a commitment to recruiting a wide range of professionals.?

To be eligible, companies must have had at least 500 employees as of April 30, 2022 in the U.S. and attrition can be no higher than 10% over the methodology time period, based on LinkedIn data. Similarly, companies with layoffs during that time that amount to more than 10% of their workforce, based on public announcements, are also ineligible. While our annual Top Companies list includes only parent companies (data on majority-owned subsidiaries are incorporated into the parent company score), the industry lists separate out subsidiaries from their parent companies. All data counts are normalized based on company size across the pool of companies eligible for the list. The methodology time frame is May 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022. All of the data used is aggregated and/or de-identified.

We exclude all staffing and recruiting firms, educational institutions and government agencies. We also exclude LinkedIn, its parent company Microsoft and Microsoft subsidiaries.

About company insights

*Company insights were sourced from LinkedIn Talent Insights and reflect aggregated public member data from active LinkedIn profiles in the relevant country associated with the company on LinkedIn. We exclude members who identify as interns or contractors. All insights reflect a 12-month time period looking back from April 2022. Top locations were categorized as the regions or cities that employed the largest percentage of each company. Skills data was derived from measuring the most frequent unique skills among a company’s employees, relative to other top companies. Most common job titles represent the occupations that are most common within each company. Largest job function measures the function area most prevalent within each company.?

Thank you Tina Vallabh, PharmD for recognizing my statement in “Linkedin News Top Companies 2022”. I recall being introduced to Walmart Pharmacy in 2005. Honestly, I wasn’t even aware Walmart had a pharmacy. I was told “Walmart is healthcare’s best kept secret”. Seventeen years later we continue to impact the industry and help people save money so they can live better. That’s one of the biggest reasons I signed on which was one of the best decisions of my life. We’re no longer a secret, and we’re positioned to not just lead, but transform healthcare as we know it. I am humbled and proud to be picked to portray the culture and values of our company which I live out daily. Thank You!#walmarthealth
