INDIANAPOLIS – The Indiana Chamber of Commerce honored 125 companies from across the state Monday at the 2020 Best Places to Work in Indiana celebration, sponsored by Ivy Tech Community College.

OrthoPediatrics, Warsaw, came in at No. 19 under medium companies with 75-249 U.S. employees.

Edward Jones, a statewide company with offices in Warsaw, came in at No. 2 under major companies with over 1,000 U.S. employees.

Rankings for the organizations were revealed in four categories via a new virtual experience that enabled employers to host their own gatherings in real time to share the news with as many employees as possible, according to a news release from the Chamber.

“Congratulations to these companies for providing the ‘best’ atmospheres and bringing out the ‘best’ in their employees,” said Indiana Chamber President and CEO Kevin Brinegar. “Their message is coming through loud and clear: It’s all about the employees. All should be proud of the perks, programs and opportunities they offer to emphasize a healthy work-life balance, community involvement and professional development.

“Recruiting and retaining talent is among Hoosier employers’ primary challenges today. The Best Places to Work honorees are addressing those obstacles while powering the success of their businesses.”

Winning companies ranged in employee count (at the time of application) from 15 to more than 2,100. Out-of-state parent companies were eligible to participate if at least 15 full-time employees are in Indiana.

Organizations that have displayed sustained excellence during the program’s history are also awarded Best Places to Work in Indiana Hall of Fame and Pinnacle designations.

Hall of Fame companies are those that have been named a Best Place to Work in Indiana at least 60% of the time in the program’s history.  

The Pinnacle designation is reserved for those that have finished first in their category three or more times in a five-year period. The four Pinnacle companies in the program’s history are: Edward Jones, Hollingsworth & Zivitz P.C., Microsoft and Sikich.

More information about the Best Places to Work companies is available via the May/June issue of the Indiana Chamber’s BizVoice® magazine. Today, the statewide publication released the rankings, accessible via print and online at www.bizvoicemagazine.com.

 All companies that participated in the 2020 Best Places to Work program receive an in-depth evaluation identifying strengths and weaknesses according to their employees. In turn, this report can be used in developing or enhancing employee retention and recruitment programs.  

Applications for the 2021 Best Places to Work program are open. Go to www.bestplacestoworkIN.com to learn more and apply.
