The Culture 500 ranks more than 500 of the largest corporations operating in the United States by how favorably employees rate their corporate culture. The initiative, which started as an MIT research project, is a collaboration between MIT Sloan Management Review and CultureX. It is the largest systematic study of corporate culture ever conducted. It analyzes 1.4 million Glassdoor employee reviews from more than 500 companies and uses natural language processing developed by CultureX to identify culturally significant terms at 90% or higher accuracy.^[4] The list measures nine cultural values: agility, collaboration, customer orientation, diversity, execution, innovation, integrity, performance, and respect.^[5] Starting in 2020, The Culture 500 began releasing Culture Champions, a list of corporations that surpass industry standards for the nine Culture 500 cultural values and meet other noteworthy criteria, such as ranking in the 30th percentile for overall culture and exhibiting high rates of diversity, integrity, and respect.^[6]
