Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries has emerged as India’s best employer and the world’s 20th best firm to work with, according to Forbes’ World’s Best Employers rankings in 2022.
The oil-to-telecom-to-retail conglomerate, India’s largest company by revenues, profits, and market value, is ranked 20th and has 2,30,000 employees.
It is the highest-ranked Indian firm, above Mercedes-Benz of Germany, US beverage maker Coca-Cola, Japanese auto giants Honda and Yamaha, and Saudi Aramco.
“Along with higher salaries, better benefits and advancement opportunities, and work-life balance, employees say purpose-driven work is a top priority. And their bosses are paying close attention,” Forbes said in its ranking released last month. Against this backdrop, Forbes has compiled its sixth annual World’s Best Employers.
