“Research consistently shows that how we feel at work matters. It deeply impacts our general wellbeing as well as company financial performance”
Work wellbeing – or how employees feel at work – is a critical factor for job seekers when deciding where to work, and plays a significant role for employers hoping to attract, hire and retain top talent. Indeed’s work wellbeing data shows a compelling correlation: higher work wellbeing leads to improved valuation, higher return on assets, and greater profits underscoring that employee satisfaction can serve as a predictor of a company’s business and financial success.
Fueled by the world’s largest study of work wellbeing and in partnership with the University of Oxford Wellbeing Research Centre, Indeed’s Work Wellbeing 100 reveals that public companies with higher work wellbeing outperform the market. These recognized companies prove wellbeing is not just better for people, but better for business.

By prioritizing work wellbeing, companies cultivate a more resilient, effective and happier workforce which ultimately drives business growth.”
The recognized companies represent a variety of industries across the U.S., ranging from healthcare to retail, to manufacturing, hospitality and tech. The retail and transportation industries are well represented on this list, with 23 and 14 companies respectively, showcasing the commitment to wellbeing. Regardless of their industry, employers on this list stand out for offering robust career growth opportunities and a commitment to flexible work options.
“Research consistently shows that how we feel at work matters. It deeply impacts our general wellbeing as well as company financial performance,” said Jan-Emmanuel De Neve, Professor of Economics at Saïd Business School and Director of the Wellbeing Research Centre at Oxford University. “For employers, the wellbeing of their workforce cannot be underestimated as our research shows that those who prioritize wellbeing reap the rewards of higher productivity and improved employee retention and attraction. This is something we’ve now shown to be the case in both hard financial metrics as well as stock market performance.”
The companies on the Indeed Work Wellbeing 100 were determined based on employee feedback shared by U.S. employees on Indeed across the four key wellbeing indicators between January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2023. To qualify, companies in the U.S. must be a publicly traded company on the NASDAQ or NYSE and have received at least 100 responses for work wellbeing indicators in the past year (Jan 1, 2023 – Dec 31, 2023).
