A Forbes 2025 badge recognizes America's leading midsize employers, powered by Statista, featuring a "#1 Ranked" label on a blue-green gradient background.

Shriners Children’s™ has been named the top Midsized Employer for 2025 by Forbes and Statistica Inc., in a survey they have been conducting and publishing for 10 years.

“This organization is proud that our employees feel that it attends to their needs and allows them to give to the best of their ability,” said Chief Medical Officer Fran Farley, M.D. “But we also know that when people contribute to others the way our people do, they feel fulfilled. That goes a long way toward accounting for this award.”

Being ranked Number 1 on the America’s Best Midsize Employers list means that Shriners Children's is tops in our industry category, Healthcare & Social Services, as well.

This new recognition comes on top of the fact that seven of our locations won a total of 12 Press Ganey Awards in 2024 for the patient experience we provide, plus six locations were acknowledged in the workforce experience categories.

This is the third time Shriners Children’s has been recognized in this Forbes ranking. Shriners Children’s was 12th among mid-sized employers last year, out of 3,000 companies and 176,000 employees surveyed.

This year Forbes and Statistica surveyed 217,000 employees who work at companies with more than 1,000 employees, and they ranked 498 midsized employers. Midsized is defined as having between 1,000-5,000 employees.

“Our employees go above and beyond daily and make incredible contributions improving children’s lives by their passion, commitment to excellence and pursuit of new and innovative technologies in healthcare,” added Kathy Dean, vice president for human resources. “We are extremely proud of this recognition, which highlights our talented and dedicated workforce. Thank you, Shriners Children’s, for achieving this recognition!”
