People magazine has listed Wegmans at No. 11 on its annual 50 Companies That Care ranking.
The supermarket chain has donated 14.5 million pounds of food and raises millions of dollars for hunger relief, according to People.
Wegmans president and CEO Colleen Wegman credited employees for the recognition.
“When we care about each other, help our customers and give back to the communities where we operate, everything else seems to fall into place,” Wegman said in a news release.
Earlier this year, the company placed No. 2 in the Forbes 100 Best Companies to Work For 2018 list, with 95% or more of those surveyed describing great challenges, great atmosphere, great rewards, great pride, great communication and great bosses, according to Great Place to Work, which does the surveys.
Wegmans also scored very well among younger employees, earning the No. 12 spot in the Best Workplaces for Millennials 2018 list.
“The Best Workplaces for Millennials give employees the tools they need to succeed,” CEO Michael Bush said in a report on findings from the surveys. “They set the bar for other organizations seeking to retain and develop the next generation of leaders and prove that giving millennials jobs with purpose and meaning drives them to give their best at work, benefitting the company as a whole.”
