Work is a grind for some but can be a fulfilling endeavor for others.

For most folks though it’s just a way to pay the bills and feed their families.

There are many types of companies to work for in South Carolina, but some are better than others. Be it higher pay, more benefits or quality working conditions, some companies just have more to offer.

But how can you know which employers are the best without getting hired there first?

Global media company Forbes recently partnered with market research firm Statista to survey more than 160,000 employees working for companies with at least 500 people in all 50 states and the district of Columbia. The workers were asked if they would recommend their employer to others and to evaluate that employer on a scale of zero to 10. Workers were also asked to evaluate employers they’d worked for within the past two years, and organizations they knew within their industry or through friends or family who worked there.

Companies that received the highest scores in each state made the list.

Below are the 10 best South Carolina companies to work for in 2024.
