Newsweek, in collaboration with Plant-A Insights Group, has announced the first-ever list of America’s Greatest Workplaces for Hispanics and Latinos 2025. This initiative underscores the critical role of diversity and inclusion in today’s corporate environment, especially for Hispanic and Latino employees, who constitute a significant and expanding portion of the American labor force. With over 31.8 million Hispanic Americans in the workforce as of 2023, representing 19% of all U.S. workers, their inclusion and satisfaction in the workplace are more important than ever.
The list features 500 U.S.-based companies that have been recognized for their outstanding commitment to creating equitable and inclusive environments where Hispanic and Latino professionals can flourish. Among the notable companies included are Cedars-Sinai, Crocs, JetBlue, JPMorgan Chase, and Mercedes-Benz. The selection process was thorough, involving analysis of publicly available data, interviews with HR professionals, and surveys from more than 47,000 Hispanic and Latino employees, alongside over 700,000 company reviews.
Jennifer H. Cunningham, Editor-in-Chief of Newsweek, emphasized the importance of the list as a resource for job seekers looking for employers that value diversity and cultural inclusion. Dev Pragad, Owner and CEO of Newsweek, highlighted the belief that diversity drives innovation and progress, stating the ranking reflects their commitment to celebrating companies that empower talent from all backgrounds.
The methodology for the ranking was rigorous, considering only companies with over 1,000 employees and utilizing over 120 Key Performance Indicators from Aniline, a reputable third-party data provider. These indicators evaluated various aspects of workplace satisfaction, including leadership, integrity, compensation, and work-life balance. The resulting list is one of the most comprehensive studies on Hispanic and Latino workplace experiences in the U.S. to date.
