Jazwares Ranks No. 16

Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine have selected Jazwares for the 2023 Fortune Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production™ List. This is Jazwares' first time being named to this prestigious list, this year ranking in the top 20 for small and medium-sized businesses. Earning a place on this list signifies that Jazwares is one of the best companies to work for in the country.

The Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production list is highly competitive, and the award is based on analysis of survey responses from over 74,000 current employees from Great Place To Work Certified™ companies in the manufacturing and production industry.

"We're honored to be named one of the Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production by Fortune and Great Place To Work," says Judd Zebersky, Founder and CEO at Jazwares. "This recognition exemplifies our belief that our company's strength lies in our creative, innovative and passionate people. Our talent drives Jazwares forward by pushing what's possible through a collective entrepreneurial spirit."

Great Place To Work, the global authority on workplace culture, determines its lists using its proprietary For All™ Methodology to evaluate and certify thousands of organizations in America's largest ongoing annual workforce study, based on over 1.3 million survey responses and data from companies representing more than 7.5 million employees this year alone.

Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of the workplace experience. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for employees regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier.

"Congratulations to the Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production," says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. "These companies know that it isn't the industry — but the company — that determines the employee experience. By putting people first, they are reaping the rewards: higher levels of performance, innovation, and customer experience."
