BetMGM jumps 40 places from previous ranking; joins Fortune 100 companies in “large” workplace category
BetMGM announced today that Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine have recognized the operator as one this year’s Best Workplaces in New York. The leading sports betting and iGaming operator landed at No.16 and secured the spot on the prestigious list by surpassing rigorous benchmarks, establishing itself as one of the best workplaces among companies headquartered in the New York region. About 92% employees surveyed said that BetMGM is a great place to work, 35 percentage points higher than the average U.S. company.
“Landing on this prestigious list is a reflection of BetMGM’s ongoing commitment to fostering a great work environment,” said Adam Greenblatt, CEO, BetMGM. “I am honored to lead an organization filled with dedicated and talented employees who have created a place where people feel welcomed and supported.”
To determine the Fortune Best Workplaces in New York
List, Great Place To Work® collected nearly 140,000 confidential survey responses from employees at eligible companies. Via the Trust Index Survey, employees shared honest feedback about their experience by responding to 60 statements about the employee experience and answering two open-ended questions. To be eligible for the list, companies must be Great Place To Work Certified and headquartered in the New York region.
Some other figures from the survey revealed that 96% of BetMGM employees were made to feel welcome when they joined the company and 94% of employees surveyed are proud to tell others that they work at BetMGM.
“Congratulations to the Best Workplaces in New York,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO, Great Place To Work®. “As the business landscape is disrupted — from AI, global conflict, and market pressure — companies who have built a reservoir of trust with their employees will be more resilient and, ultimately, more successful.”
In 2022, BetMGM was No. 56 on the Best Workplaces in New York list and in 2023 they were Certified as a Great Place To Work®.
In 2024, BetMGM also was shortlisted by SBC North America and EGR North America for “Employer of the Year” honors.
Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention, and increased innovation. When surveyed, employees overwhelmingly mentioned the people, inclusive culture, benefits, and work-life balance as reasons why BetMGM is a great place to work.
According to Great Place To Work® research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion. Great Place to Work® Certification is the only recognition based entirely on what employees report about their workplace experience – specifically, how consistently they experience a high-trust workplace.
