A recent announcement marked seven times for Georgia-Pacific to be named as an honoree in a national, prestigious business publication.
On Feb. 13, 2024, the company was named to the Forbes list as one of America’s Best Large Employers 2024.
This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider.
America’s Best Large Employers have been identified in an independent survey from a vast sample of over 170,000 U.S. employees working for companies employing more than 5,000 people within the U.S.
The final score is based on two types of evaluations:
• Personal – Given by employees themselves, also known as direct evaluations.
• Public – Given by friends and family members of employees, or members of the public who work in the same industry – also known as indirect evaluations, with a much higher weighting for personal evaluations.
Statista publishes hundreds of worldwide industry rankings and company listings with high-profile media partners. This research and analysis service is based on the success of statista.com, the leading data and business intelligence portal that provides statistics, relevant business data, and various market and consumer studies and surveys.
