The 2022 Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® are a collaboration with the Best Practice Institute (BPI), a leadership development and benchmark research company that previously recognized the company as a Most Loved Workplace®. 

Marriott Vacations Worldwide received the recognition based on associate surveys around employee satisfaction and sentiment, including the level of respect, collaboration, support, and sense of belonging they feel at the company.

“As a result of ‘The Great Resignation,’ more companies recognize the importance of focusing on employee satisfaction to not only attract but retain top talent,” said Nancy Cooper, Global Editor in Chief, Newsweek. “The businesses on this year’s list clearly demonstrated that commitment.”  

Marriott Vacations Worldwide’s recognition as a Top 100 Most Loved Workplace comes on the heels of the company being certified as a Most Loved Workplace® and recognized as a Top Company to Grow a Career in Travel & Hospitality by LinkedIn.

Methodology 

To identify the top 100 companies for the Newsweek ranking, companies were evaluated and scored as follows: 35 percent of the initial score was based on employee survey responses; 25 percent was derived from analysis of external public ratings from sites such as Comparably, Careerbliss, Glassdoor, Indeed and Google; and 40 percent came from direct interviews with and written responses from company officials. Newsweek then conducted additional research into every company on the list, as well as the top runners up, to determine the final list of 100 companies and their ranking. (The list includes both U.S. firms and companies with a strong U.S. presence that are based overseas.)
