A survey from anonymous message board app Blind reveals the 30 tech companies with the worst rates of employee burnout.

Employee burnout and stress is a big problem in the average American workplace, but it's especially true among some of the country's biggest tech companies, many of which have famously rigorous workplace cultures that often encourage long hours, favor young people, and sometimes require unreasonably high levels of productivity.

Blind, a message board app created for employees to talk about work anonymously, surveyed more than 11,000 employees at 30 of the biggest tech companies to find out just how many of them feel burnt out by their work.

Here's how each of the biggest tech companies stack up, based on their respective levels of employee burnout:

Credit Karma tops the list with 70.73% of employees reporting that they are suffering from burnout.

In a statement provided to Business Insider, a Credit Karma spokesperson pointed out that their internal surveys measuring employee burnout have shown different results. Here's Credit Karma's full statement:

At popular video game streaming website Twitch, 68.75% of employees reported suffering from burnout.

Nvidia: 65.38%

Expedia: 65.00%

Oath, the parent company of Yahoo and over 15 other online media brands: 63.93%

Oracle: 63.25%

Intuit, the financial software company behind TurboTax and QuickBooks: 62.75%

Snapchat: 60.40%

Lyft: 60.16%

Cisco: 59.70%

Amazon: 59.53%

A spokesperson at Blind told Business Insider that the survey results in this category did not include Amazon employees who work in packing and shipping facilities, but rather is limited to "office workers."

Silicon Valley giants like Apple, Google, Salesforce, and Facebook also made the top 30 list of companies with the highest employee burnout rates. Here's the complete list:
