2022 100 Best Companies Winners
This year’s winners continue to set the standard by providing inclusive benefits for families, including paid gender-neutral parental leave, phase-back programs, bereavement leave after miscarriage, reimbursement for fertility expenses, and increased mental health benefits for employees.
“We are seeing our 100 Best Companies add even more to their robust benefit offerings that go beyond traditional parental leave,” says Subha V.

These companies continue to set the bar high when it comes to building family-friendly, inclusive workplaces.”
