About the ranking
The ranking of Germany's best employers is compiled annually by Stern magazine together with the market research institute Statista. For the study on which the ranking is based, more than 43,000 employees were surveyed via online access panels over the internet in 2022. They were recruited by professional market research providers, which enables a survey that is independent of employers. They evaluated their own company as well as other companies in the sector. In this way, a total of one million judgements could be used. The questionnaire about one's own company covered more than 50 topics, but the decisive point is recommendation.
