TIME Magazine and Statista recently released their “America’s Best Mid-Size Companies 2025” list with 12 New Jersey-based firms ranked among the 500.
It’s the second year that Time has compiled the list, which recognizes 500 companies with annual revenue of between $100 million and $10 billion. Time and Statista used data points and employee surveys to evaluate the companies, assign them each a score and create the rankings, with focus placed on the areas of employee satisfaction, revenue growth and sustainability transparency.
America’s Best Mid-Size Companies 2025 were identified based on three dimensions:
- Employee satisfaction: Based on survey data from approximately 217,000 employees at U.S. companies over the past three years, the results reflect employee recommendations and evaluations across key areas such as company image, atmosphere, working conditions, salary, workplace environment, and equality.
- Revenue growth: Companies with $100 million to $10 billion in revenue (as of 2023 or 2024) and consistent positive growth were evaluated using both relative and absolute metrics.
- Sustainability transparency: Data among standardized KPIs relevant to environment, social, and corporate governance
America’s Best Mid-Size Companies 2025 were identified based on comprehensive criteria including employee satisfaction surveys from 217,000 employees, revenue growth metrics, and sustainability transparency measures. The complete list can be viewed on TIME’s website here.
