I truly feel valued and appreciated as well as invested in."

Employees say:"NVIDIA is leading the way in markets that are emerging, visionary, exciting, global... Balancing the diversity of the employees, being on the cutting edge of rapidly developing technologies, and the legalities/demands/requirements of the various countries' where we do business is an awesome, in the truest sense of the word, responsibility. The enormity of all these things and continuing to achieve greatness is thrilling to me. I still pinch myself every day to be working here. A real honor."

Nvidia

When my family faced a serious illness, the company's immediate and unwavering support allowed me to prioritize what mattered most--being there for my loved ones.

That level of compassion and flexibility is rare and deeply appreciated."

They even gave us an extra unexpected day last November. Our brand is all about trust and we work hard to earn that."

We plan well in advance for leadership transitions and communicate them with all staff well in advance. We routinely seek input from all levels of staff and encourage new ways to do things. Young analysts across the firm are tasked with 'efficiency consulting' to find new and better ways for both external and internal processes.

Their willingness to invest extra time ensured I was fully equipped to contribute meaningfully to the team."

I had more medical appointments than usual, and my manager never made me feel stressed or behind. Instead, I felt safe, valued, and understood. I was always allowed the time I needed for my health and my baby, and I was able to catch up on work at a manageable pace afterward. My manager consistently checked in on me and made sure I had everything I needed. I truly appreciated how much care and empathy were shown during such an important and vulnerable time in my life."

Salesforce

Employees say:"We really do help our customers stop cyber breaches, and everyone is proud of focusing on that. We do want to grow our business so that we can help more folks stop their breaches, but we make sure to grow in a way that actually helps stop breaches long term, not just acquiring market share or adding features that sound good but don't actually work. And the people I work with, all the way through the company, are fantastic human beings that I wish I could spend more time with on a personal level!"

CrowdStrike Holdings

Employees say:"My team specifically is very inclusive and caring. When I had a baby they sent me a care package with customized items with his name on it.

We treat it as both a current asset as well as a 'trust,' meaning current employees are the beneficiaries of the work our predecessors put in to cultivate our culture and we are also responsible for ensuring that it is maintained into the future. It is an explicit priority at all levels that we maintain a respectful environment focused on relationships, mentoring and pro bono work. We discuss it frequently in lateral interviews and in assessing candidates for new positions. I'm incredibly proud to be a 'lifer' at Alston &amp; Bird. My colleagues are like a second family to me and I cannot imagine working anywhere else."

I have never experienced a workplace like this and wouldn't want to work anywhere else."

Power Home Remodeling

The abundance of resources available and avenues for listening are in my opinion, unmatched."

AbbVie

Employees say:"The culture at MTSI is unique. I first started at this company as an intern. It was during my first week and I was nervous and still settling in, I had multiple VPs and directors stop by to introduce themselves, as questions about me and see if I needed anything. The events this company puts on to give back to the employs is top notch. Everyone cares - about you, about doing a good job, and about success. We are 100% employee owned and because of this, the employees here value each other and their jobs. I couldn't imagine working anywhere else."

Employees say:"One of the things that makes this company a great place to work is its strong and transparent company culture. One standout example is the annual anonymous 'Outlet Survey' that gives employees the chance to share honest feedback about their work environment, leadership, and overall satisfaction. What's particularly impressive is that leadership doesn't just collect this feedback, they take it seriously. After the survey, results are openly discussed within teams, and managers work with employees to create action plans to address concerns."

The culture is very entrepreneurial - we are constantly encouraged to push the status quo to do something great - even if that means there's the chance of safe failure.

Capital One Financial

Employees say:"Each team member I work with has extreme integrity, knowledge, and compassion. Even on the hardest days, we are there for one another to jump in and accomplish all of our goals.

I have small children which can make a career quite difficult, but my manager has never made me feel like I have to choose between my family and my career."

Pinnacle Financial Partners

Employees say:"CarMax is, hands down, the best place I have worked in my long career. I truly feel valued here, and I believe my work makes a difference.

Our executives and upper leadership know our teams and take the time to get to know each person, connect and ask for feedback on how we/they can improve. Our voices are heard.

I can always push back on ideas with more senior people - there is very little ego in my department, we all work towards the common good. The trust, freedom, challenges and community at this firm is truly invaluable to me. And I love that I can visit our offices around the world and work with colleagues around the world daily on Teams and it feels like one firm."

The people at Alnylam are comfortable being uncomfortable and doing things that have never been done before."

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals

Employees say:"It really is so inclusive and the management is very humble and down to earth. It is not rare to pass the CEO or president of culture in the hall and they are kind and interested in your day. The tier of management does not feel threatening and the word "boss" is not thrown about. The term 'team leader' is often used and that is exactly what they feel like, leaders who mentor and encourage and guide the team. I've never worked in such an open and fun place regardless of role."

CHG Healthcare Services

I consider myself lucky to have found employment in Florida Blue, and highly recommend others to explore opportunities here."

This provides a huge benefit and flexibility, especially to working parents."

Employees say:"As a first-generation immigrant, caring for my parents in a different country comes with significant emotional and logistical responsibility—far beyond financial support. It requires time, presence, and adaptability. Intuit's Family Support Time (FST) exemplifies our We Care value in action. It recognizes that supporting family isn't a distraction from our mission; however, it's a reflection of it. This benefit enables me to care for my parents with dedication, without compromising professional integrity or team accountability. FST isn't just a policy. It's how Intuit affirms that behind every employee is a family story, and behind every story, a shared humanity that makes us Stronger Together."

This environment allows me to bring fresh ideas to the table and truly make my mark, both within the firm and for our clients."

BDO USA

Employees say:"One thing that makes this company stand out is how seriously it invests in collaboration and team alignment. A great example of this was when I was flown out for an in-person workshop. It wasn't just about logistics, it showed a real commitment to bringing the right people together to solve problems, build relationships, and move work forward in a meaningful way. That level of support and intentionality isn't something you see everywhere, and it made a big impact on how connected and empowered I felt."

My manager and director encourage healthy habits and support me both in my professional role by providing me with opportunities for learning and growth but also support my role outside of work as a parent by ensuring I take the time I need to care for my child when ill and enjoy time off. I've never had such a supportive leadership team that not only encourages professional growth but also sincerely encourages personal growth."

Insperity

Employees say:"The support that this company gives women is incredible. Full access to programs like Maven truly shows how much the company cares for women and recognizes the need to provide additional support. Regardless on how difficult things might get at work, the support I have via Maven and other benefits help me to show up to work at my best.

All of my managers give constant feedback and ask for feedback on their performance as well. The question my direct boss usually asks me is, 'How can I support you today?' She knows me well and knows what I need to be successful. I highly respect this about AF and the management team I work with daily."

American Fidelity Assurance Company

Employees say:"The people here are exceptional; they genuinely care about one another, which makes this a great place to work. The firm also works hard to give people opportunities to learn and grow.

Our resources are vast, and the benefits are great."

Perkins Coie

Employees say:"We do remote work right! There is freedom to work where is needed for you, and flexibility from your team, but lots of efforts to make people feel like part of a community, so you don't lose the camaraderie of actually working with people.

To produce the Fortune Best Workplaces for Parents™ list, Fortune partnered with the people analytics firm Great Place To Work®. Great Place To Work has been surveying employees around the world about their workplace experiences for 30 years. Great Place To Work has developed a set of themes and metrics that not only reveal whether employees feel their workplace is great, but also predict retention, agility, and overall business success.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Using their proprietary Trust Index™ survey, Great Place To Work measures the core of what they know creates great workplaces — key behaviors that drive trust in management, connection with colleagues, and loyalty to the company.&nbsp;

The survey enables employees to share confidential quantitative and qualitative feedback about their organization’s culture by responding to 60 statements on a five-point scale and answering two open-ended questions.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Employees tell Great Place To Work whether or not leaders are accessible, if they communicate honestly and clearly, and if their actions match their words. Employees share whether they feel respected as individuals, whether they receive support for their well-being and personal development, if they have opportunities to contribute, and if they receive appreciation for their work. They share whether they believe their company is fair related to pay, profits, promotions, recognition, favoritism, and opportunities for growth. They share whether they are proud of their work, their team, and their company, if they feel they make a difference, and if their work is meaningful. And, they share whether they enjoy the people they work with, whether they feel cared for, and whether they can be themselves.&nbsp;

List rankings are based on this employee feedback, which is analyzed to determine the extent to which this experience is shared by the full workforce. To determine the Fortune Best Workplaces for Parents™ list, Great Place To Work measures parents’ survey responses, compares them to those of their peers, and assesses the impact of demographics and roles on the quality and consistency of parents’ experiences. Statements are weighted according to their relevance in describing the most important aspects of an equitable workplace.&nbsp;

The best companies create great work experiences not just for full-time managers, but also for their part-time employees on the front lines, for those who’ve just joined and those who’ve spent their whole career there, for every race and ethnicity, gender, neurotype, or other demographic in the organization—Great Place To Work looks at it all. Companies with the broadest set of parents who report positive workplace experiences receive the highest rankings on lists.&nbsp;&nbsp;
 
In order to analyze employee feedback in context, Great Place To Work collects information from each company including their industry, revenue, size, and employee demographics. In addition, companies provide organizational information about parental leave, adoption, flexible schedules, childcare, and dependent health care benefits. Great Place To Work identifies the organizations that offer the most generous, caring and innovative cultures reflecting a genuine commitment to meeting the diversity of their people’s needs inside and outside the workplace as validated by what employees themselves report in survey results.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Because employee feedback drives these rankings, surveys must meet strict requirements for how they are distributed and the percentage of employees who respond to ensure they accurately represent honest feedback from the company’s full population. &nbsp;To be eligible for the Fortune Best Workplaces for Parents™ list, companies must be Great Place To Work Certified™ and have at least 50 responses from parents in the US. Companies with 10 to 999 people are considered for the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://fortune.com/ranking/best-small-workplaces-parents/2025">small and medium category</a>; companies with 1,000 employees or more are considered for the large category.&nbsp;

In the last year, Great Place To Work surveyed companies employing 8.4 million people in the U.S. and received 1.3 million survey responses. Of those, nearly 606,000 responses were received from employees with parenting responsibilities at companies who were eligible for the 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces for Parents™ list, and this list is based on their feedback.
