Last Updated: February 20th, 2018 - This update only shows the new status of company popularity. It has not incorporated the newest companies added into the spreadsheets or newly added perks. Spelling corrections also made throughout the post.

This guide does not cover Jobs, only companies.

Are you thinking of joining a company?
The first thing you'll want to know is what specials companies offer. For a snapshot of all company specials, Document 1 below. The second thing you'll need to know is if you have the working stats to join your preferred company type. Document 3 is an excellent source for helping you determine this quickly.



Are you thinking of starting a company?
You'll probably find Document 2 to be the most useful and direct information for determining which company to start. However, Document 3 will give you an idea of the work stats your players will need. This is important to know as higher stat players will typically demand higher daily pay, especially in a startup company.

Total player companies as of July 7, 2015: 2948

This graph is showing how many companies of each type there are. In other words, startup popularity. It does not show the company types that make up less than 1% of the total. The percents above are based on 2763 properties instead of 2948.

The graph is not a reflection of employee popularity. However you could extrapolate that employees are typically looking for the same company specials as directors.



The companies in the right column make up 28.8% of the company types in the game, but their combined total only equates to 6.28% of the companies in the game.

Under 30 Companies: Unpopular
- More difficult to attract employees.
- Less competition for gaining more stars.
- Resale of company may be difficult without high stars.

30-60 Companies: Average
- Employees can be attracted with a little effort.
- Competition is average for earning stars.
- Decent resale value, but selling may take time.

70+ Companies: Very Popular
- High stars can be very picky with employees.
- Low stars will need to be competitive with wages.
- Competition extremely high for earning stars.
- Have the highest resale value.

The above is a generalization. Clearly a Restaurant can not be directly compared to a Sweet Shop. However, this should give a general idea of what to expect in each category. It should also be noted that the majority of companies in the top 10 require high working stats to join.






Ratings are only updated on Sunday at approximately 5:00PM, TCT.

Ratings are based on two major factors:

1. How high your weekly profit is in comparison to other competing companies.

2. Your company's experience, which grows on a daily basis.

For most company Types between 20-50% could hold the highest star rating. More popular companies like Sweet Shops and Oil Rigs can expect to only have 20-25% maintaining 10 stars.

Less popular companies Types, for instance a Toy Shop, have a much better chance to gain 10 stars.

Specials only exist at the following star levels: 1, 3, 5, 7, 10.
There are no specials gained at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 or 9 stars.
New companies begin with no stars and companies can go down in star rating.

A company will be destroyed if there are no funds to maintain it's expenses.

Each day employees earn 1 job point per company star regardless of the company type.
