Publix has landed on Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For list for the 27th year in a row, making it one of only four companies to appear on the list every year since its inception.
“Our associates are the key to perpetuating the Publix culture and helping create an environment that makes Publix a great place to work,” said Publix CEO Kevin Murphy. “We are proud our associates continue to consider us an employer of choice year after year.”
According to Publix, the company focuses on promoting from within and giving employees stock-ownership programs. The retailer said it also encourages its associates to be involved in their communities, providing opportunities throughout the year to volunteer.
Methodology
Great Place To Work is an organization that aims to promote and enhance workplace culture. Every year, they survey employees working for companies that have a Great Place To Work Certification and at least 1,000 people working for them in the United States. The survey gathers employee feedback about their company’s culture, measuring processes that build trust in leadership, bring co-workers together and develop company loyalty. Based on this survey and an essay submission, the organization partners with Fortune to share the rankings.
