Which companies are particularly well positioned with respect to corporate culture, working atmosphere or family friendliness? To answer this question, DEUTSCHLAND TEST, together with the Hamburg Institute for Management and Economic Research, examined a total of around 14,000 companies from all over Germany.
The test winners published in FOCUS aktuell include numerous well-known companies such as BMW, Siemens, Deutsche Telekom and Investitionsbank Berlin (IBB).

To determine the scores, a qualitative-quantitative analysis of online media, platforms and social media networks was carried out for each of the companies evaluated in the “Best Work-Life Balance 2023” study. Both the tonality balance and the reach were determined. The factors “corporate culture” and “working atmosphere” accounted for 40 percent of the overall result. The aspect of “family friendliness” was weighted at 20 percent. A total of around 900,000 mentions and comments were recorded and analysed with the help of AI during the study period from July 2022 to June 2023.
