Rankings Announced for 2024 Best Places to Work in Indiana

It’s time to celebrate Hoosier organizations prioritizing internal cultures that bolster their workforces and companies. The Indiana Chamber of Commerce honored a record 193 employers from throughout the state tonight at the 2024 Best Places to Work in Indiana Awards Dinner, presented by trueU. Rankings were revealed in four categories at the event, which was held in Indianapolis at the Indiana Convention Center. Coming in at No. 1:

JA Benefits, a Bedford-based insurance and employee benefits company – small category (between 15 and 74 U.S. employees)
TrueScripts, a prescription benefit management service in Washington – medium category (between 75 and 249 U.S. employees)
Harrah’s Hoosier Park Racing and Casino, a casino and racing park in Anderson – large category (between 250 and 999 U.S. employees)
ARCO Design/Build, a national design/build construction firm with a location in Indianapolis – major category (1,000 or more U.S. employees)

JA Benefits earns the No. 1 designation for the fifth time, while TrueScripts celebrates a “three-peat” in its category. ARCO jumped from the No. 2 spot in 2023 to join Harrah’s as a first-time winner in 2024.

“The theme of this year’s program was ‘Show Off Your Superpower,’ and these winning organizations are definitely ‘super’ in the ways in which they enhance the lives of their employees,” says Indiana Chamber President and CEO Vanessa Green Sinders. “The fun staff events, terrific benefits and benevolent efforts to improve their communities are just some of the ways these leading businesses are setting examples for workplace culture.”

Organizations on the list represent more than 40 cities and towns, with a variety of honorees coming from Carmel, Evansville, Fishers, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis, Marion, Plainfield, Warsaw and Washington. In addition, several businesses have multiple Indiana locations.

This year’s winners include companies with Hoosier employee counts (at the time of application) ranging from 15 to 1,300. Out-of-state parent companies were eligible to participate if at least 15 full-time employees are in Indiana. Two companies – Edward Jones and KSM (Katz, Sapper & Miller) – have received the honor in all 19 years of the program’s history.

Honorees and rankings were determined through employer reports and a comprehensive, anonymous employee survey. The Workforce Research Group handled the selection process.

2024 marked the 19^th year for Best Places to Work in Indiana. Sinders was excited to take part in the first Best Places to Work event of her tenure. “Since I began, I’ve been hearing what a fun experience this event is,” she shares. “It’s clear the impact on the state’s business community is palpable and it’s a pleasure to bring so many Hoosiers together to recognize these employers and their staffs.”

All companies that participated in the 2024 Best Places to Work program receive an in-depth evaluation identifying strengths and weaknesses according to their employees. In turn, this report can be used in developing or enhancing employee retention and recruitment programs.

In addition to the awards, winners will be recognized via a special section of the Indiana Chamber’s BizVoice® magazine and through Inside INdiana Business, a Division of IBJ Media – both of which reach statewide audiences. Additional program partners are HR Indiana SHRM, Indiana Department of Workforce Development, Institute for Workforce Excellence, Wellness Council of Indiana and Workforce Research Group. More information about the Best Places to Work honorees is available via the current edition of BizVoice magazine, available online at www.bizvoicemagazine.com.
