Even though my company has good ratings, why did it not make it to the ‘Best Places to Work Awards’ list?
For a company to qualify it must fulfil the following criteria:-

  • Company must be a registered company in India or wholly owned subsidiary of foreign company in India.
  • Company must not be a Government organisation, Staffing firm, Dealer/Franchisee, NGO/Social Service organisation, Industry Association, College/ School/University, Restaurant, Hotel, Airport, Hospital and alike.
  • Company must not have influenced reviews or have tampered with the process of collecting authentic, unbiased reviews, including intentional or unintentional acts that violate the AmbitionBox Community Guidelines and/or Terms of Use.
  • Company must not have been involved in any fraudulent or suspicious activities and is under scrutiny by their respective governing entity.
  • Company must meet category eligibility criteria as well to qualify.

Winning an award depends on a variety of other reasons. Refer to the complete methodology here.
What is the time frame of reviews and ratings considered for awards?
Only reviews contributed between 01 January 2020 & 07 May 2021 for a company were considered for these awards, also all reviewers should have worked in that company in 2020 (between 01 January 2020 and 31 December 2020).
How are companies ranked?
Companies are ranked based on the new overall rating which is calculated using our proprietary algorithm based on the ratings shared by employees who have worked in the company in 2020. In cases where 2 or more companies have the same rating, a joint rank is given. Ranks are awarded by Standard Competition ranking.

Refer to the complete methodology here.
Can companies nominate themselves for Awards 2021?
No, companies cannot nominate themselves to participate in Awards. All companies on AmbitionBox are eligible for Awards subject to fulfilling the award category qualifying criteria.

However, a company can increase its chances of qualifying if they have sufficient reviews on AmbitionBox. Hence we encourage companies to ask their employees to fill reviews on AmbitionBox.
How does a company benefit from these awards?
If you believe you have a really good work culture and a great employer brand, then get noticed by more than 1 Crore monthly jobseekers on AmbitionBox with the ‘Best Places to Work in India’ award. Not only this, but all companies that make it to the list are also given a badge which can be showcased on your own website or social media platforms as recognition from AmbitionBox. This helps companies attract and retain talent.
How will a reviewer's data be used?
Other than awards, the data will be used for displaying reviews and ratings on the respective company page on AmbitionBox. Find out more about our terms of use here.
How is the authenticity of reviews checked?
  • Our proprietary algorithm filters and analyses multiple attributes of the review - spam, fake, abusive, duplicate and similar factors to decide the authenticity of a review.
  • Any reported or flagged content is reviewed by a team of moderators and is removed if it doesn’t meet our community guidelines.
How are AmbitionBox Awards different from other awards?
  • Unlike other awards, the companies cannot self nominate themselves for the AmbitionBox Awards.
  • No costs are involved in the process. Ranks are declared based on reviews and ratings given by the employees who have worked in the company.
  • AmbitionBox is one of the largest platforms in India for researching reviews and ratings of a company. Given our scale and reach, these awards truly showcase where Indians want to work.
