EXTON, PA — The prestigious USA TODAY Top Workplaces award has recognized more than 1,500 organizations across the nation for 2025, celebrating excellence in workplace culture and employee satisfaction. This national honor, presented in partnership with Energage, shines a spotlight on companies that prioritize the employee experience and foster environments where individuals can thrive.
Out of approximately 40,000 organizations invited to participate, the winners distinguished themselves by cultivating people-first workplace cultures. Organizations that earned this high-profile recognition represent a variety of industries, but all share a commitment to listening to their employees, valuing their input, and building engaging work environments.
The selection process was rooted in an in-depth, confidential survey conducted by Energage, a leading HR research and technology firm. The survey evaluated crucial Workplace Experience Themes, which serve as proven indicators of organizational health and performance. Employee responses about leadership, direction, collaboration, and overall employee engagement were used to identify the winning companies. By focusing on authentic feedback directly from employees, the award serves as a true reflection of a company’s commitment to fostering a positive organizational culture.
With over 1,500 winners earning this distinction, USA TODAY’s platform highlights these organizations as leaders in creating exceptional workplaces, positioning them as employers of choice. The winners were previously recognized during last week’s National Awards Summit in Las Vegas, an event celebrating the importance of employee engagement in driving success.
The USA TODAY Top Workplaces award demonstrates that workplace culture is more than an operational priority; it’s a competitive advantage. Organizations that continually invest in employee well-being and satisfaction not only retain top talent but also benefit from increased innovation, collaboration, and performance.
This year’s honors further underscore the importance of empowering employees and ensuring their voices are heard. The recognition of these companies serves as a benchmark for the business community, showcasing what it means to make people the heart of organizational success.
