Wegmans Press Release
Great Place To Work and Fortune have recognized Wegmans Food Markets as one of the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For in 2025.
This is Wegmans 28th time being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at sixth place. Earning a spot means Wegmans is one of the best companies to work for in the country.
The 100 Best Companies to Work For list honors companies that build a high-trust workplace environment, measured through Great Place To Work’s proprietary survey platform. Confidential feedback from more than 1.3 million employees in the U.S. is matched against HR data from participating companies. Only companies with consistently high survey responses across the 60 statements that comprise the Trust Index Survey are honored with placement on the list.
"We are incredibly honored to be recognized again as one of the 100 Best Companies to Work For,” said Colleen Wegman, president and CEO of Wegmans Food Markets. “At Wegmans, we live by a shared set of values that creates a culture of belonging, where all are treated with respect and where each person’s uniqueness is valued. We’ve always believed the best way to serve our customers is by first being a great place to work for our people, and in turn, we hear from our customers that Wegmans is a happy place, where all feel welcome. We couldn't be more proud of everyone at Wegmans for living our values every day."
The Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For list is highly competitive. Companies are only considered for the list if they are a Great Place to Work Certified organization with 1,000 or more employees in the U.S. Companies are assessed on their ability to create a great employee experience that cuts across job level, business unit, race, gender, age, disability status, or any aspect of employee identity.
Earning a spot on the list is an important indicator of overall company performance. Companies on the 100 Best list consistently outperform the market and exceed their competitors on key business measures like retention and innovation.
“Leaders are the reason a business succeeds or fails,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “In the more than 30 years we’ve studied the workplace, our data proves that how you treat people shows up in your financial performance.”
This year’s list of winners offers compelling insights into the workforce strategies needed to thrive in the AI era.
“When you measure trust, you uncover the potential that exists in an organization,” Bush said. “Employees at companies on this list have higher levels of trust in their leaders and in their organization, unlocking their creativity, passion and resilience.”
“Fortune is happy to have collaborated with Great Place To Work for the 28th year to recognize the 100 Best Companies to Work For,” said Alyson Shontel, editor-in-chief of Fortune. “In a difficult macro environment with unprecedented challenges, these companies seemed to navigate their organizations toward steady and positive working environments for employees. Congratulations to all who were recognized.”
In 2024, Wegmans also ranked as a Best Workplace for Parents, Best Workplace for Women, and was ranked No. 1 on the Fortune Best Workplaces in Retail list. In addition, it was named to the PEOPLE Companies That Care list.
Celebration at Wegmans stores
Customers and employees will celebrate the honor on Saturday, April 5, at 11 a.m., when mini cupcakes will be served at every Wegmans store. For customers who prefer a healthy option instead of mini cupcakes, Clementine tangerines will be available.
