Wegmans ranks #3 on list of the Top 100 companies to work for

Wegmans has again been named as one of the 100 ‘Best Companies to Work For,’ in a survey done by the organization Great Place to Work and Fortune magazine.

Wegmans placed #3 on the list, the same as last year. This year marks the 23rd anniversary of the list and Wegmans has been on the list every year.

The list  is based on survey responses from more than 650,000 employees rating their workplace culture on 60-plus elements of the workplace. These included trust in managers, respect, fairness, and camaraderie.

“We are so grateful for our dedicated employees who have made us a part of this list for the past 23 years,” said President and CEO Colleen Wegman. “Our people make shopping and working at Wegmans a truly special experience every day. We celebrate and thank them for all they do to earn this incredible honor.”

Wegmans says that its customers and employees will celebrate the recent ranking on Saturday, February 22, at 11 a.m. when cake will be served at every Wegmans store. For customers who prefer a healthy option instead of cake, Clementine tangerines will be available.

Wegmans is now hiring for new stores set to open in Harrison, NY in June and in West Cary, NC and Tysons Corner, VA later in 2020.

The Hilton hotel chain ranked #1 in the latest survey and a Florida-based company called Ultimate Software ranked #2.
