KnowBe4 ranked among the top 100 global companies recognized for employee sentiment and satisfaction
TAMPA BAY, Fla., May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Newsweek Magazine today announced the 2025 Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces®, developed in partnership with Most Loved Workplace®, a division of Best Practice Institute (BPI). KnowBe4 was ranked #51 on this prestigious list, which highlights companies across the globe where employees genuinely love to work.
Now in its third year, the Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list is based on research from BPI's Love of Workplace Index®, drawing on data from more than two million employees worldwide. Companies featured have demonstrated extraordinary commitment to building cultures of trust, respect, purpose, and employee connection, regardless of size, location, or industry.
"This recognition for the second time reflects our core belief at KnowBe4 – that creating a workplace where people feel genuinely valued drives both innovation and business performance," said Ani Banerjee, CHRO at KnowBe4. "What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it comes directly from our employees' experiences. We have built our talent strategy around giving our people recognition, purpose, and the tools to thrive in both their professional and personal lives."
The ranking is informed by employee perspectives in five key areas: how positive employees feel about their future at the company, career achievement, alignment of employer values with employee values, respect at all levels, and collaboration. Additional factors—such as diversity and belonging, leadership, and professional development—were also evaluated in relation to these core sentiment drivers.
"As we mark five years of recognizing the world's Most Loved Workplaces®, it's an honor to spotlight companies that place employee well-being at the center of their workplace cultures," said Jennifer H. Cunningham, Newsweek's Global Editor in Chief. "In today's rapidly changing world, this year's list reflects a growing global shift toward human-centered leadership as a key driver of resilience and success."
"This year's Global Most Loved Workplaces® show what's possible when leaders turn employee sentiment into business strategy," said Louis Carter, founder and CEO of BPI and Most Loved Workplace. "From trust to purpose to collaboration, these companies are using data-driven insights to build cultures people don't want to leave. This year's Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® showcase how leading with love, trust, and alignment drives performance, loyalty, and lasting impact. We're proud to work with Newsweek to highlight their achievements on a global stage."

Methodology
The 2025 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list was developed in partnership with Best Practice Institute (BPI) using its proprietary Love of Workplace Index®, which includes direct employee survey responses and analysis across five core sentiment areas: employee satisfaction with future vision, career achievement, values alignment, respect, and collaboration. More than two million employees worldwide were surveyed across companies ranging in size from 10 to over 10,000 employees. Additional evaluation included written submissions and interviews with several hundred company executives, along with analysis of external public ratings. Newsweek's global editorial team then conducted independent research to finalize the list—recognizing companies that place trust, belonging, and respect at the center of their business and workplace culture.
