We honored 125 companies from across the state Thursday at the 2021 Best Places to Work in Indiana celebration, sponsored by Ivy Tech Community College. Rankings for the organizations were revealed in four categories at the event, where participants could attend virtually with their colleagues or join the celebration in-person at the Indiana Convention Center.

Coming in at No. 1:

  • JA Benefits, LLC, a Bedford-based employee benefits company – small category (between 15 and 74 U.S. employees)
  • American College of Education, a private, for-profit online college in Indianapolis – medium category (between 75 and 249 U.S. employees)
  • Onebridge, a business intelligence and data analytics consulting firm headquartered in Indianapolis – large category (between 250 and 999 U.S. employees)
  • Microsoft, the technology giant with a local office in Indianapolis – major category (1,000 or more U.S. employees)

JA Benefits leads its category for the third year in a row. American College of Education and Onebridge ascend to top spots for the first time. Microsoft continues its record-setting pace, finishing No. 1 nine of the 11 times it has participated in Indiana.

Nearly 300 attended the event, while around 2,000 participants celebrated with their colleagues while watching virtually.
