Among employers with headquarters in Arizona, the university was ranked No. 1. Forbes and Statista β a German online statistics portal β selected the best employers based on an independent survey in which 38,000 employees in 25 industries working for companies with at least 1,000 people employed at their U.S. locations were asked open-ended questions regarding their own employer. Forbes did not publish a 2020 list of employers due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, in addition to the work-related topics asked in the survey, respondents were asked questions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and accompanying challenges for employers.
