Online retailer Amazon and financial services firms Wells Fargo and JP Morgan Chase have been named as some of LinkedIn’s top employers to work for in the US in 2023.
The social media platform has published the list for seven years, highlighting the 50 best US workplaces that help employees grow their career by looking at how they advance both within an organisation and when they leave. To be eligible, businesses must have had at least 500 employees as of 31 December 2022 in the country, and attrition can be no higher than 10% over the year-long methodology time period.
Amazon ranked first on the list for the third consecutive year and has been among the top three organisations for six consecutive years. LinkedIn also recognised it as a top employer in Japan and Spain, where it ranked first, and in the UK, India and Italy, where it ranked second.
It was praised for its education and skills training, and its benefits package that includes health insurance from an employee’s first day, a 401(k) plan, up to 20 weeks of paid parental leave and free mental health support.

- Amazon
- Wells Fargo
- JP Morgan Chase
