NVIDIA ranked No. 1 on Forbes magazine’s new list — America’s Best Companies — based on more than 60 measures in nearly a dozen categories that cover financial performance, customer and employee satisfaction, sustainability, remote work policies and more.
Forbes stated that the company thrived in numerous areas, “particularly employee satisfaction, earning high ratings in career opportunities, company benefits and culture,” as well as financial strength.
About 2,000 of the largest public companies in the U.S. were eligible, with 300 making the list.
Beau Davidson, vice president of employee experience at NVIDIA, told Forbes that the company has created systemic opportunities to listen to its staff (such as quarterly surveys, CEO Q&As and a virtual suggestion box) and then takes action on concerns ranging from benefits to cafe snacks.
NVIDIA has also championed Free Days — two days each quarter where the entire company closes. “It allows us to take a break as a company,” Davidson told Forbes. NVIDIA provides counselors onsite and a careers week that provides programs and training for workers to pursue internal job opportunities.
NVIDIA enjoys a low rate of employee turnover — widely viewed as a sign of employee happiness, according to People Data Labs, Forbes’ data provider on workforce stability.
