Last year, St. Louis had ten companies on the list. It’s down to nine this year, as Smurfit Stone Container dropped off because it was purchased by Rock-Tenn in 2011. The companies are:
60. Express Scripts 120. Emerson 224. Monsanto 289. Reinsurance Group of America 316. Peabody Energy 340. Ameren 351. Charter 451. Graybar Electric 453. Centene
