Are you searching for a great place for women to work? A company that will support, empower, and uplift women — helping them grow their careers while providing benefits that support their full selves? A company that ensures everyone is treated equally?
Finding companies that fit this bill is at the core of Fairygodboss itself. As such, we created the Best Companies for Women lists in 2017 to highlight companies where women love to work because we know, from our research, that a woman’s job satisfaction is directly related to the amount of gender equality she experiences at work.
Our lists are based 100% on anonymous employee reviews left on Fairygodboss, and the scores for four of the lists are based on responses to three questions about overall job satisfaction, perceived gender equality at work, and recommendations to other women about working at the company.
For our top CEOs list, scores are determined by the average response to the question: Do you think your CEO supports gender diversity?
And this year, we are introducing two new lists! The highest-rated managers list is determined by the average response to the question: How supportive is your manager?, and our new best companies for flexibility list is based on the question: How much flexibility do you think exists at your company?
This year’s winners form a group of companies that are truly elevating women in the workplace and changing the game regarding gender diversity. Without further ado, here are the top winners in each category:

Without companies like these who believe in gender equality, the work we do at Fairygodboss would not have as much of an impact as it does. So thank you to all of these companies, and thank you to everyone who submitted a review!
