America’s Greatest Workplaces 2024

Companies that create a great workplace are more likely to have engaged workers who care about their jobs. But in April, Gallup reported that U.S. worker engagement hit an 11-year low, falling to 30 percent of full- and part-time employees feeling "highly involved and enthusiastic about their work and workplaces." This was down 3 percentage points from the number of workers who felt the same way in just the last quarter of 2023. Gallup added that the drop was most noticeable among remote, hybrid and younger workers.

To spotlight the companies whose employees find it easy to stay engaged, Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group are releasing the second-annual ranking of America's Greatest Workplaces. The companies featured here show that, even in the face of waning enthusiasm among much of the workforce, it is still possible to create a great environment that facilitates engagement.

Throughout 2022 and 2023, more than 250,000 U.S. employees were interviewed for the ranking, resulting in more than 1.5 million company reviews spanning 78 individual sectors. The survey covered topics like compensation and benefits, training and career progression, work-life balance and company culture. Also, post-survey desk research considered each ranked company's online mentions, diversity and inclusion ratings, and reviews of senior management.

The highly-regarded companies ranked here likely enjoy stronger client relationships and higher retention rates, because better workplaces benefit everyone.

METHODOLOGY

Currently, many U.S. companies are facing challenges to fill all open jobs, necessitating a focus on meeting the diverse needs and challenges of employees. Companies can support their workforce by prioritizing factors such as work-life balance, competitive compensation, professional development opportunities, and supportive workplace cultures. By addressing employees' fundamental needs, companies not only foster a more positive and productive work environment but also position themselves to attract and retain talent.

The methodology for America's Greatest Workplaces for 2024 is based on a five-part evaluation.

The first phase was a pre-study survey that interviewed HR professionals to identify current and future employee satisfaction drivers.

The second phase was the main employee survey among U.S. employees who reviewed employers they were familiar with. The independent study is based on more than 250,000 interviews and more than 1.5 million company reviews collected in 2022 and 2023.

The third phase was an elaborate desk research project in which we collected overall 15 KPIs relevant for a great employee experience (e.g. reviews and information from social media platforms on corporate culture, work life balance, or career opportunities).

In the fourth phase, we applied media monitoring, reviewing all published press of the past 24 months (12/9/2021 – 12/10/2023) of all recognized companies to identify potential legal disputes around the workplace.

The fifth step was the validation step. We calculated an individual company score based on our proprietary scoring model. The best companies with 500 to more than 5,000 employees have been recognized as "America's Greatest Workplaces 2024".
