The Best
Workplaces for
Diversity
This annual list from Fortune and research partner
Great Place to Work is based on survey responses
from women, the LGBTQ community, people of color,
employees with disabilities, and older workers. The
diversity at these companies is even more notable
considering at least seven out of 10 listed here
employ 20,000 or more people. For the full list of 100
