UnitedHealth Group, Target, Best Buy, Supervalu, 3M and Inver Grove Heights-based CHS are among Fortune’s list of the biggest companies in the world. Twin Cities Business reports all the Minnesota companies were on the list last year, but dropped in this year’s annual ranking, expect for CHS, who jumped 97 spots.

Ethisphere Institute selected 145 companies worldwide for the list. Best Buy, Ecolab, Mosaic, Target and Thrivent Financial for Lutherans were all on the list unveiled Thursday.

Minneapolis-based Target and Richfield-based Best Buy closed roughly 200 stores on the east coast because of Hurricane Sandy on Monday. Eden Prairie-based Supervalu closed about 20 of its Acme Market stores.

The Human Rights Campaign Foundation awarded 13 Minnesota corporations with perfect scores in their treatment of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender employees, including Best Buy, 3M and Medtronic.

The Richfield-based electronics retailer was named by 24/7 Wall St. as one of the most hated. The website reviewed several factors including earnings, product quality, pricing and consumer satisfaction. Best Buy is sixth on the top ten list. Facebook, American Airlines and AT&T are the top three most hated.
