"The companies on Ad Age's 2025 Best Places to Work list have shown a deep commitment to building workplaces where employees truly want to be-no small feat in today's challenging labor market,” said Dan Peres, president of Ad Age. "Earning this recognition isn't just a win for company culture; it also strengthens an organization's reputation, making it a more attractive place for top talent.”
The winners-top companies with 150 or fewer employees and top companies with more than 151 employees-reflect the highest overall numerical scores based on an analysis of questionnaires submitted by employers and survey responses from their employees. Ad Age's scoring system factors in employee responses on topics including pay and benefits and seven other core focus areas (80% of the score) and a company's policies and practices on areas including pay and benefits, work/life balance, recruitment, training and development (20% of the score). As noted in Ad Age, winning companies outscored other entrants in areas such as employee benefits, DEI initiative, training and professional development, and work-life balance.
"Basis Technologies is incredibly grateful for our employees, whose feedback have been the key factor in bringing visibility to our workplace leadership, as recognized by Ad Age for numerous years,” said Emily Barron, chief people officer, Basis Technologies. "Empowerment, support, flexibility and inclusivity is practiced every day at Basis. We ensure that our team has the tools, knowledge and resources to perform their best, stay healthy, and continually develop professionally and personally.”
