New: What's keeping today's C-suite leaders up at night?

Methodology

Glassdoor compiled the ratings list, released Tuesday, based on voluntary, anonymous feedback that site users provide when they review their organization on Glassdoor. The review form asks for ratings of workplace and job attributes as well as qualitative feedback about the best reasons to work at the organization and areas that need improvement. The latest list covers reviews submitted between May 2, 2018 and May 1, 2019.

Glassdoor released one list for large employers—those with 1,000 or more employees—and another for medium and small employers—those with fewer than 1,000 employees.

The large employers list included CEOs at six hospital and health systems. Those CEOs are:

• Michael J. Dowling, Northwell Health* (No. 44);
• Peter Pisters, MD Anderson Cancer Center* (No. 47);
• Bob Quattrocchi, Northside Hospital* (No. 49);
• Randy Bufford, Trilogy Health Services (No. 60);
