America’s Best Startup Employers 2025 identified the top performing startups in the United States by analyzing a set of defined KPIs that correspond to company growth and workplace satisfaction. After gathering more than 7 million data points from over 20,000 eligible companies, 3,000 employers qualified for in-depth analysis. In the end, only 500 companies were included on the ranking. Each employer’s final evaluation was based on three key criteria: Employer Reputation, Employee Satisfaction, and Company Growth.
