The list of the world's 25 Best Workplaces has been released - and once again, companies with a UAE presence feature on this list.

This year's ranking of the 25 World's Best Workplaces has been published by leading global workplace culture authority Great Place to Work, in partnership with Fortune.

For the first time, tech giant Cisco tops the list, replacing Salesforce which drops to No. 3, and global hospitality giant Hilton taking second place.

Beside Cisco and Hilton, multiple companies with presence in the UAE and Saudi Arabia made it once more to the 2019 list, including DHL Express who moved up from the 6th position in 2018 to the 4th position in 2019 and SAS also moved up from the 10th position in 2018 to the 9th position in 2019 ; AbbVie maintained their 16th position from last year.
