To create this year's list, the P&I team partnered with Workforce Research Group to gather data through questionnaires (filled out by asset managers, i.e. employers) and engagement and satisfaction surveys (filled out by asset managers' employees), with the employee surveys accounting for 80 percent of the scores that went into the final rankings. Firm eligibility requirements include having at least 20 U.S. employees and at least $100 million in discretionary institutional AUMA. Many of the winning asset managers are fund firms.

First Eagle Investments ranks first in the "major employer" category (firms with between 500 and 999 U.S. employees each).
