Methodology

America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces 2026 recognizes the best midsized employers in the United States based on their performance across key workplace-related categories. The study incorporated over 2.6 million online employee reviews and publicly available data to evaluate more than 4,700 companies employing between 500 and 1,000 individuals.

Plant-A Insights Group partnered with Aniline, a leading HR analytics company, to leverage their extensive database of over 120 key performance indicators for companies based in the United States. Companies were scored across six comprehensive categories of workplace satisfaction built from 55 individual scoring elements, which include Working Environment, Culture & Belonging, Compensation & Benefits, Work-Life Balance, Career Progression & Training, and Company Culture.

In addition, results from the America’s Greatest Workplaces 2026 study were used to identify key workplace satisfaction drivers, with corresponding categories weighted by their importance to employees.

The comprehensive analysis was supplemented by a validation review using the Critical Mention media monitoring platform from Onclusive. This process investigated whether employers were implicated in unfair workplace practices or reported for workplace harassment between December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2025. Any employer found engaging in such practices was subsequently excluded from the final ranking list.

Following a collaborative review for plausibility by the Plant-A research and Newsweek editorial teams, a proprietary scoring model was used to create a final score for each employer that considered all relevant weights on categories. The 500 highest-scoring employers have been recognized by Plant-A Insights and Newsweek as America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces 2026.

The exclusion of a company from this ranking is not a reflection on its quality and is not disputed.

Plant-A Insights Group has a strict no-pay-to-play policy. All awards are based on independent research and unbiased data analysis.
