Big Y Named a Forbes Best-in-State Employer for Sixth Straight Year
SPRINGFIELD — For the sixth year in a row, Big Y has been recognized as a Forbes Best-in-State Employer for 2024.
Honorees have been identified across all industries based upon an independent survey of employees who anonymously recommend their employers for this award. Employers such as Big Y neither have the knowledge of which employees are polled, nor do they have the ability to influence the results in any way.
According to Forbes, employees are asked to rate their willingness to recommend their own employers to friends and family. Employees are also asked to give their opinions on a series of statements surrounding work-related topics such as working conditions, salary, potential for development, and company image regarding their current employer. Big Y’s award spans 25 different industries.
“Big Y is grateful to receive this award as a Forbes Best-in-State Employer for the sixth year in a row,” President and CEO Michael D’Amour said. “This achievement reflects the unwavering passion of every member of our caring Big Y family for serving our customers and local communities. We are extremely proud of our over 10,000 employees and are honored to share this recognition with each of them.”
Big Y puts a strong emphasis on employee experience and feedback focusing on flexibility, overall recognition, work/life balance, and fostering a culture of caring and inclusion. It engages in employee roundtables, focus groups, employee resource groups and frequent surveys to solicit feedback on improving the work environment.
