Fortune Editors

To determine the Best Workplaces in the Bay Area in 2024, Fortune&nbsp;partnered with global people analytics firm&nbsp;<a href="https://www.greatplacetowork.com/">Great Place to Work</a> to analyze survey feedback representing nearly 80,000 U.S. employees. (For large companies, also see: <a href="http://www.fortune.com/ranking/best-workplaces-bay-area/2024">The 25 Best Large Workplaces in the Bay Area</a>.)

Employees say:"Being remote first since its founding in 2017, I've noticed that Cribl leadership has a lot of trust in people to do their job and gives everyone the opportunity and accountability to make an impact here. There is very little to no 'office politics' that I've seen. Everyone I work with is smart and just trying to do their best work, support our customers, and have fun with their colleagues. It's also refreshing that the entire organization, starting with the CEO, does not take themselves too seriously."

Cribl

Employees say:&nbsp;"I have never worked for a company that is as open and honest with their employees as Lumin is. I had a friend that was employed here, and she told me about how great the company was, and she couldn't have been more correct! Amazing company with amazing employees. So glad I have the opportunity to work for a company that walks the walk."

Lumin Digital

Employees say:"NerdWallet truly supports its people. I recently needed to take some personal time, and my manager fully supported me in doing so. I can't think of anywhere else I've worked where that would have been handled with such care and compassion, and without regard for workload or how to manage work without me. Having the support through a difficult time is something many companies may say they provide, but NW actually does it."

NerdWallet

Employees say:&nbsp;"I have never been at a company that is so welcoming and appreciative of the work I have done. We even have a slack channel called 'grateful' where people just go and call out people that have been working extra hard or who have been doing a really good job. The benefits are incredible, and I feel very connected to the people I work with."

Mercury

Employees say:&nbsp;"I'm going on my fourth week with the company, and I was awestruck when my director asked for my opinion based on my previous experience. That level of trust and respect is a wonderful attribute, which makes me want to give it back in return."

Chegg

Employees say:&nbsp;"I've never felt so comfortable approaching management with questions, concerns, or criticisms. It's clear that people here strive to work together, rather than creating an adversarial environment. It's also wonderful to see how people here lift one another up by not only celebrating accomplishments and positive things, but also supporting one another when things get tough. The sense of being a team here is great, and it's backed up by the behaviors of everyone from the top all the way down."

Silk Road Medical

Employees say:&nbsp;"Turo demonstrates that they value their employees by providing us with wellness opportunities, flexible time off, inclusive work environment, reasonable workload, fair salary and bonuses, clear expectations and leadership support, all-hands meetings sharing information with all employees and responding to questions, encouraging innovation and suggestions to improve processes."

Turo

Employees say:&nbsp;"The values and how we demonstrate them make AppLovin special. We are a founder-led company that hires and develops doers, empowers employees to take ownership of their work to make an impact on our business and operate like entrepreneurs. I'm very proud to be a part of this organization."

AppLovin

Employees say:"ENGEO provides employees with an incredible community and supportive culture for growth and success in career and life; ENGEO feels like family. There is a constant focus on culture, technical development, client service, servant leadership, and new opportunities."

ENGEO

Employees say:"The culture at Thumbtack is unlike any company I've worked. From top to bottom, this truly feels like a family. We are encouraged to bring our best selves every day. I've never been a member of a legal team that had such an amazing relationship with all the other teams here. There's a great deal of emphasis placed on collaboration."

Thumbtack
