TIME's world's best companies of 2024: Key metrics

The World's Best Companies 2024 list is based on analysis across three dimensions: employee satisfaction, revenue growth, and sustainability.

‘’Companies like Apple, Microsoft, and BMW still appear to be investing in their workers’ happiness, a trait that has put them at the top of the list of a new statistical ranking of 1,000 of the World’s Best Companies by Statista and TIME,'' said TIME.

Microsoft, for instance, which came in third in the rankings, was the second highest-rated company in employee satisfaction, after Alphabet, the parent company of Google. 

Microsoft has said it tries to ensure that employees are thriving, which it defines as “energized and empowered to do meaningful work,” an approach that seems to be working both at keeping employees happy and at powering revenue. The company made $88 billion in its latest fiscal year, up 22 per cent from the prior year, and ranked highly in revenue growth.

Apple also earned strong marks from employees, coming in fourth in employee satisfaction, but was propelled to the top of the rankings by its ESG rating, which was first out of all the companies. The tech giant has committed to being carbon neutral by 2030 and is making more products with recycled materials; in early 2024, it also became the first big tech company to achieve gender equality on its board of directors, now composed of four men and four women.

Though tech companies accounted for six of the top 20 positions and four of the top 10, the German automaker, BMW Group, ranked fourth. Accenture, the consulting firm based in Dublin, scored second overall in all three categories. Its CEO, Julie Sweet, was on the TIME100 list for 2024. Under her, Accenture “had a deeply positive societal impact, using technology to solve pressing issues,” Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, wrote about Sweet.
