The 2023 Forbes rankings are out, and the City of Phoenix made the list for America's Best Employers By State! A total of 74 companies were recognized in Arizona, and Phoenix came in 19th. 

“The City of Phoenix Human Resources Department has a clear mission to attract, develop, support, and retain a talented workforce that delivers exceptional services to our community," Human Resources Director David Mathews said. “To land on a list like this from Forbes – ranked solely based on employee reviews – suggests to me that we are continually moving toward accomplishing that mission." 

Forbes worked with market research firm Statista to compile the Best-In-State lists. They anonymously surveyed 70,000 workers across the nation at companies with 500 employees or more.

Employees were asked to evaluate their employer on qualities like working conditions, compensation packages, and diversity. They were also asked if they would recommend their employer to others. Companies paid no fee to participate.
