LinkedIn launched the 2022 Top Companies list for India, as determined by the actions of more than 85 million professionals in India on the platform. The sixth annual edition reveals 25 best workplaces where professionals in India can grow their careers. These 25 companies have continued to attract and retain talent by offering stability in today’s ever-changing world of work.
