Opportunities to upskill and advance in a career – these advantages set the companies on Forbes' list of The World’s Best Employers 2024 apart. We’re honored to be among those recognized in this independent global survey of 300,000+ employees in 50+ countries.
Workers around the world are justified in feeling uncertain about their place in the labor market: The current geopolitical unrest, growing cost of living, rapid evolution of generative AI in the workplace, and the increasing need to prioritize sustainability in the supply chain all have an impact on jobs, according to research from the World Economic Forum. And to stay competitive, workers need to be vigilant about upskilling and adapting to shifting job responsibilities. For some lucky employees, however, opportunities to advance their skillsets, try new tools, and grow with their jobs are baked into their company’s offerings. These employees tend to stay in their jobs for longer and remain more content and engaged at work—although finding these companies is not always easy. Now Forbes is here to simplify that search, with our eighth annual ranking of the World’s Best Employers 2024. SEE LIST: https://trib.al/BSRTTi8

At Tencent, we believe in the power of giving back. 🌟 Our Giving for Good initiative, held every September, emerged from 99 Giving Day one of the world’s largest public charity campaigns. As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of this meaningful event, we are proud to highlight the outstanding contributions made by our Tencent Americas teams. This year, our Palo Alto team supported Abilitypath, purchasing products created by neurodiverse artists and volunteering at a local food bank. In Los Angeles and Irvine, our volunteers packed patient kits for chronically ill children through the Starlight Patient Activity Kit program. Additionally, we organized food donation bins to support local food banks, held a virtual blood drive with the American Red Cross, and hosted a silent auction fundraiser for Feeding America and Food Banks Canada. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our team members for their dedication and contributions to our communities. 💙
