About
The American Opportunity Index assesses how well America's largest companies maximize their internal talent to drive business performance and individual employee growth.
The Index is the only measure of employer quality to evaluate what really happens to workers at America’s largest employers over time.
This year’s Index measures the career trajectories of nearly 5.4 million employees at 395 of America’s largest companies using independent data. All measured firms are rated across multiple metrics and ranked by sector. The highest-scoring 100 firms overall are recognized as Top Employers of Choice.
Why the Index?
We specifically designed the Index to fill a key void in the marketplace: to equip employers with new data to help them benchmark their success and flag areas for improvement.
The Index is rooted in a fundamental belief that employees are a company’s most valuable asset.
When employers invest in unlocking the full potential of their people — by providing good jobs and ample opportunities for advancement — their businesses do better.
