/PRNewswire/
-- Glassdoor, one of
the world's largest job and recruiting sites, today announced the
winners of its annual Employees' Choice Awards, honoring the Top

other workplace award, the Glassdoor Employees' Choice Awards are
based on the input of employees who voluntarily provide anonymous
feedback by completing a company review
about their CEO's leadership, along with insights into their job,
work environment and employer over the past year.
This year, the Glassdoor Employees' Choice Awards for the
Top CEOs feature six distinct company categories across the
U.S., Canada,
UK, France and
Germany.
In the U.S., Glassdoor has revealed the 100 Top CEOs (honoring CEOs
at employers with 1,000 or more employees) and the 50 Top CEOs at
small & medium companies (honoring CEOs at employers with fewer

"It's an honor to recognize incredible leaders who, from
their employees' perspectives, exemplify exceptional vision, trust
and communication. Glassdoor's Top CEOs award continues to be more
competitive every year, and I congratulate each leader on their
achievement," said Christian
Sutherland-Wong, Glassdoor president and chief operating
officer. "Today's job seekers are looking for leaders who share
their values and will empower them to bring their full selves to
work. More and more, we're seeing Top CEOs make decisions to shape
the culture of their organizations to help recruit and retain
quality talent, which has a direct correlation to fueling business
success."
Glassdoor's 100 Top CEOs in 2019 award features winning
chief executives across diverse industries spanning technology,
health care, finance, manufacturing, retail and more. This year,
VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger claims the top spot for the first
time with a 99 percent approval rating, jumping from No. 78 last
year with 92 percent approval. Salesforce
CEOs Marc Benioff and Keith Block (No. 17, 96 percent approval) make
the list for the first time as co-leaders, and are among 40 CEOs
debuting on the Top CEOs list for employers with 1,000 employees or
more. Other newcomers include PayPal's
Dan Schulman (No. 34, 95 percent
approval), Visa Inc.'s Alfred F. Kelly, Jr (No. 90, 91 percent
approval) and Trader Joe's' Dan Bane (No. 93, 91 percent approval). Seven
women are honored among the top 100 this year, including
In-N-Out Burger's Lynsi Snyder (No. 3, 99 percent approval),
Wegmans Food Markets' Colleen Wegman (No. 54, 94 percent approval) and
KPMG's Lynne
Doughtie (No. 72, 92 percent approval).
On the 2019 list of the 50 Top CEOs at Small & Medium
Companies, four of the top five CEOs are newcomers to this
list.
This year, there are 15 CEOs who are recognized by
employees in multiple countries, including only one CEO who has
made four lists — SAP's Bill McDermott (U.S. Large, UK, Canada and Germany).
When employees submit reviews
about their employer on Glassdoor, they are asked to rate several
factors tied to their employment experience. These include rating
sentiment around their CEO's leadership as well as around senior
management, among others. Specifically, when rating their CEO on
Glassdoor, employees are asked to report whether they approve or
disapprove of or have no opinion about their CEO's
performance.
Across the approximately 900,000 employers reviewed on
Glassdoor, the average CEO approval rating is 69
percent.
Employees' Choice Award winners for the 2019 Top CEOs and
Top CEOs at Small & Medium Companies are determined using
Glassdoor's proprietary algorithm, taking into account the
quantity, quality and consistency of Glassdoor-approved company
reviews shared by U.S.-based employees between May 2, 2018 and May 1,
2019. At a minimum, employers considered for the large list
must have received at least 100 company reviews, including at least
100 CEO approval ratings and at least 100 senior management
ratings. Employers eligible for the small & medium list must
have received at least 35 company reviews, including at least 35
CEO approval ratings and at least 35 senior management ratings
during the eligibility period. For reporting simplicity, CEO
approval ratings are displayed as whole numbers, though
calculations extend beyond the thousandth decimal place to
determine final rank order. Complete award
