As major companies extend work from home, the line between work and life gets blurred.
In fact, American workers are still working more hours than people in other countries amid the coronavirus pandemic, according to a Business Insider analysis.
But some companies offer policies that allow for better work-life balance. Career site Comparably released their annual ranking of the top 25 companies for work-life balance, and companies like Starbucks and CVS topped the list.

Retail, food services restaurants, and tech companies made up much of the top 25. Top firms included Whole Foods Market, Target, Subway, and Home Depot. You can read the full list here.
