Twenty-three healthcare employers were featured on LinkedIn News’ city-specific top companies lists.
The lists use LinkedIn data to analyze key markers of career progression, including ability to advance, skills growth, company stability, external opportunity, company affinity, gender diversity, educational background and employee presence in the city, according to the May 19 LinkedIn News post.
To be eligible, companies must have had at least 250 global employees and at least 100 employees in the city as of Dec. 31. Attrition also could not exceed 10% during the methodology period from Jan. 1, 2025, to Dec. 31.
