Wegmans Ranked As Top Retailer To Work For By Fortune
Wegmans customers love shopping at its stores, and its employees appear to enjoy working for the grocer.
For the 28th time, the Rochester, N.Y.-based retailer has been named to the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For. The 2025 list was compiled by Fortune and Great Place To Work.
Ranking No. 6 on the list, Wegmans is joined by four other retailers in the Top 100; Sheetz, No. 40; Publix, No. 42; Target, No. 55; and Walmart, No. 100.
"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."
The 100 Best Companies to Work For list recognizes 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.
“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.”
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, they were named to the People Companies That Care list.
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.
