America's Best-in-State Employers 2024 were identified in an independent survey from more than 160,000 employees working for companies employing at least 500 people within the United States. The ranking is open to companies from all industry sectors and 4.4 million employer evaluations were considered. 

The evaluation was determined on a state-by-state basis and is built on two types of employee evaluations: Personal evaluations, or employees’ willingness to recommend their own employers to friends and family, and public evaluations, including recommendations from friends and family members of employees, or members of the public who work in the same industry.

The number of companies on each state’s list varied by the size of its companies and workforce. Ultimately, a total of 1,294 organizations made the overall list.

“We are pleased to be recognized as one of the Best In-State Employers for the second year in a row,” said Larry Antonucci, M.D., president and chief executive officer of Lee Health. “It is a testament to our goal of making Lee Health a positive and enriching place to work for all of our employees, and part of what makes the health system a leader in Southwest Florida and a destination for compassionate and thoughtful patient care.”
