Amazon Is No. 1 on the 2018 LinkedIn Top Companies List

Last year’s leader, Alphabet, came in second

Amazon vaulted its way to the top of the 2018 LinkedIn Top Companies list, swapping positions with last year’s leader, Google parent Alphabet, which came in second.

They were joined in the top five by Facebook (No. 3, No. 3 in 2017), Salesforce (No. 4, No. 4 last year) and Tesla (No. 5, up from No. 6 in 2017).

LinkedIn said it complies its list based on “the billions of actions of our 540 million-plus members,” adding that it “looks at data including job seeker reach and interest, engagement and retention, paired with an editorial lens.”

Twitter experienced the biggest drop in the rankings, falling to No.
