“Best Workplaces like Logistics Plus have built dynamic, flexible, and transparent workplaces founded on trust,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work. “This gives companies on this list a powerful opportunity not just to do well for their people, but also to do well for their businesses.”
Jim Berlin Audio Comments
“We get a lot of awards, which is pretty cool actually. But the workplace awards are the ones that mean the most to me. That’s your own employees saying, ‘I like being here,’ and to me, that is the key to success,” said Jim Berlin, founder and CEO of Logistics Plus. “I’ve always been proud of our team, but I’ve never felt better about who we have here now than I do today. It’s unbelievable. I see people here who bust their butts, work really hard, and have great attitudes. I’ve never been more sure of us as a successful company as I am today,”

They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2019. (Since then, several companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2016 is $100,000; the minimum for 2019 is $2 million.
