If you're looking for a new job it's helpful to have an understanding of the types of benefits a company offers.

Offerings like health insurance, paid time off, flexible schedules, and retirement plans, are some of the most popular perks and benefits for employees. But how do you know if the benefits package has all these components before you even apply?

To find out, career website Comparably recently ranked the large companies, (with more than 500 employees) that have the best perks and benefits. To do this, the company surveyed 60,000 US companies using 10 million anonymous employee ratings on the site between the end of September 2019 to the end of September 2020.

Employees were asked questions regarding satisfaction with their company's perks and benefits, such as "Are you satisfied with your benefits?" and "How would you rate the perks your office provides?"

Many West Coast-based tech companies topped the list this year. A number of top companies, like Apple and Facebook allowed full-time employees to work-from-home during the COVID-19 crisis.
