Amazon is most desirable workplace in US: LinkedIn

SAN FRANCISCO: Based on the company’s ability to attract, develop and retain talent, Microsoft-owned professional networking platform LinkedIn on Wednesday named Amazon as the most desirable workplace in the US for 2021.

In the 2021 LinkedIn Top Companies List, Amazon was followed by Alphabet, JPMorgan Chase, AT&T and Bank of America as the top five.

Amazon is up from number 3 in 2019, the latest edition of this ranking.

This annual list uses data from LinkedIn’s 740 million members across the globe to rank the most sought-after places to work for professionals in the US.

“We keep refining our Top Companies methodology each year,” George Anders, senior editor-at-large for LinkedIn, said in a statement.
