The applications were submitted prior to the pandemic making its way to the United States.
The average engagement score, which measures how engaged employees are in their work, was 73.5 percent this year with the average going above 90 percent for those who made the list. One hundred percent of the honorees provide health insurance and 62 percent offer offsite employee retreats.
