Allbirds, the shoe retailer, is reportedly the list's best startup
There are plenty of startups in the U.S., but it’s not always easy to tell which companies are good employers.
Earlier this month, Forbes published a report that ranked startup companies by how well their employees like them.
For its findings, Forbes worked with Statista to analyze 2,500 businesses in the U.S. with at least 50 workers that had been founded between 2010 and 2017.

Each business was evaluated on employer reputation, employee satisfaction and growth, Forbes said.
In its report, Forbes also said that a clear mission and opportunities for growth were important focal points at the top-ranking company, Allbirds.
To see the rest of the top results, here are the 5 best startups to work for and what they do, according to Forbes.
