Global Most Loved Workplaces 2025
Global Most Loved Workplaces 2025
The Global Most Loved Workplaces® stand out for reasons beyond just compensation. These are companies where employees feel respected, empowered and inspired to do their best work, places defined by trust, inclusion and purpose-driven culture.
A fast-changing global workforce has made it clear: People want more than just a paycheck. According to statistics published by the Pew Research Center, only half of U.S. employees say they are 'extremely or very satisfied' with their jobs overall. About 30 percent say they are 'extremely or very satisfied' with their pay, just 37 percent expressed high levels of satisfaction with chances for training or ways to develop new skills and only 26 percent are satisfied with their job promotion opportunities. However, at the organizations recognized here, these priorities are not only met but exceeded.
To spotlight exceptional workplaces worldwide, Newsweek again partnered with the Best Practice Institute to present the third annual Global Most Loved Workplaces® ranking.
Learn how your company can qualify for future recognition by visiting https://mostlovedworkplace.com.
The list is based on BPI's Love of Workplace Index®, which draws from surveys of more than two million employees worldwide, in-depth interviews with hundreds of company leaders, analysis of external public ratings, company news and employee reviews.
Workplaces were measured in five primary areas to determine how employees feel about where they work: the level of collaboration at the workplace, how positive workers are about their future at the company, how much employer values align with employee values, respect at all levels and career achievement. Employee wellness, diversity, inclusion, career advancement and other workplace and talent development initiatives were also considered.
The result is a list of 100 companies where employees are proud to work and feel genuinely connected to the mission and culture.
This year's leaders include HLB (#1), Petfolk (#2), Synctera (#3), Supercharge (#4) and Customer.io (#5). Newsweek is proud to recognize these companies, among others, with a spot on this year's list.

The Surprising Impact of Trump's Tariffs On American Farmers
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. American farmers are once again caught in the crossfire of Trump's trade wars. Despite a 90-day tariff truce with China, they continue to face rising export costs for soybeans, corn and pork, along with effects from earlier retaliatory tariffs and export restrictions. The numbers tell a stark story. U.S. soybean exports to China experienced a significant decline during the height of trade tensions. According to data from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), from mid-2018 to the end of 2019, retaliatory tariffs imposed by six major trading partners—Canada, China, Turkey, Mexico, the EU, and India—resulted in estimated losses of over $27 billion in U.S. agricultural exports. Soybeans alone accounted for more than 70 percent of those losses. The financial strain has left many farmers relying on taxpayer-funded bailouts. "Input costs for farmers remain a challenging factor, further compounded by ongoing uncertainty in markets," Evan Hultine, Vice President of Illinois Farm Bureau (IFB), told Newsweek. "It's hard enough to market in the weather, let alone add the volatility within the markets." Despite the economic toll, political loyalty to Trump among many farmers has remained strong. However, analysts warn the cycle of trade disruption and federal compensation is not only unsustainable but damaging to the long-term health of American agriculture. "I don't think farmers support protectionist trade policies—they support Trump for other reasons—mainly social or cultural issues—even though trade wars are bad for their bottom lines," Tad DeHaven, a policy analyst at the Cato Institute and former Senate policy adviser told Newsweek. DeHaven's analysis highlights a paradox. While Trump's trade wars have hurt farmers financially, the Trump administration sought to "buy off" the agricultural sector with billions in subsidies. "Farmers were bailed out by taxpayers in the first Trump administration," he said. "Knowing that they would likely be bailed out again, farmers were more willing to accept the economic pain." That pain, however, was significant. During Trump's first term, China—previously the largest buyer of U.S. soybeans—retaliated against U.S. tariffs with tariffs of their own. Even after a 2020 trade agreement partially restored soybean exports, the damage had been done. According to DeHaven, China, along with other trading partners, began shifting to more reliable suppliers, like Brazil and Argentina. "Rather than stabilize agricultural production, [Trump's] tariff-driven bailouts deepened dependency and inefficiency," he noted. "They introduced uncertainty and compelled importers in countries like China to source more of their ag imports from other countries." Illinois Farm Bureau/Catrina Rawson Analysts observe that Chinese importers are now turning to South America for poultry and pork and eyeing Australia for wheat, sorghum and barley. Canada and Mexico, also targeted by Trump's trade barbs, have begun diversifying their import portfolios away from the U.S. Meanwhile, U.S. farmers are being squeezed on the cost side. Tariffs on steel and aluminum have driven up the cost of farm equipment, while trade restrictions have made key inputs like fertilizer more expensive. Canada, the largest supplier of potash—a vital fertilizer ingredient—has faced barriers under Trump-era trade policies, contributing to higher input prices at home. "Increased tariffs mean reduced market access and higher costs," DeHaven said. "Trump effectively treats all imports as bad, but U.S. agriculture depends on open markets both to sell goods and buy inputs affordably." To offset the fallout from these policies, Trump's first term saw $23 billion in direct payments to farmers. And the cycle is poised to repeat. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins has already announced a new $10 billion round of taxpayer-funded farm bailouts authorized in late 2024. But experts warn this model is unsustainable. "If history repeats itself, American farmers—caught once again in the crossfire of economic nationalism—will be left with fewer markets, more expensive supplies and increased reliance on federal aid," DeHaven said. "For taxpayers, the bill will be high. And for U.S. trade credibility, the cost may be even greater." Illinois Farm Bureau/Catrina Rawson On May 15, Sec. Rollins visited the UK to strengthen ties and champion U.S. farmers and ranchers. Over the next five months, she'll tour Japan, Vietnam, Brazil, Peru, Italy and India to open new markets and boost exports. USDA spokesperson Seth W. Christensen told Newsweek that Sec. Rollins top priorities are increasing access for American products in existing markets, opening new markets with strong demand for our products and making sure trading partners are treating American farmers, ranchers and producers fairly. Meanwhile, Hultine said the IFB continues to push for a five-year Farm Bill, emphasizing the need for consistent support and strategic market development both domestically and globally. DeHaven believes that the key lies in shifting away from reactionary financial relief and toward trade liberalization. He argues that rather than insulating farmers with bailouts, the government should support policies that expand trade, giving farmers greater access to global markets and reducing the cost of essential inputs like machinery, fertilizer, and herbicides. Instead, the administration's trade policies have limited market access for U.S. goods, creating challenges for the agricultural sector that it publicly champions.

Will this local café be named the best farm-to-table in the U.S.? How to vote
HONOLULU (KHON2) — On a breezy stretch of Kamehameha Highway on Oʻahu's North Shore, just past shrimp trucks and crashing waves, sits Kahuku Farms. It's a fourth-generation family operation that's getting national attention. The farm's café, already beloved by locals and visitors alike, has just been nominated in Newsweek's Readers' Choice competition for Best Farm-to-Table Restaurant in the United States. 23yo motorcyclist killed in crash on Pali Highway 'Farm to table is a huge buzzword these days,' said Judah Lum, director of operations for Kahuku Farms. 'And we can say that our farm café truly is a farm to table experience where we offer fresh ingredients straight from our fields and neighboring farms.' Voting runs until June 19 at noon Eastern Time. Fans can vote once per day. The winners will be announced on June 26. You can click to vote. Kahuku Farms is the result of more than 100 years of agricultural heritage. The Matsuda and Fukuyama families, who immigrated from Japan to work Hawaiʻi's sugar plantations in the early 1900s, eventually began growing their own crops. Clyde Fukuyama and Melvin Matsuda were childhood friends who decided to merge their farms in the 1980s. Their handshake deal created Matsuda-Fukuyama Farms, the parent company behind today's 140-acre operation. Download the free KHON2 app for iOS or Android to stay informed on the latest news Now, a new generation leads the way. 'When they started farming together over 40 years ago, Clyde and Melvin never dreamed that someday their tractors would be pulling wagons full of people instead of watermelons,' said Kylie Matsuda-Lum, managing director for Kahuku Farms. 'I feel honored and grateful to perpetuate our family's future in farming. To share our generations of knowledge and history with others, in this amazing place that I've known as home, is a dream I'm passionate to live.' What sets Kahuku Farms apart isn't just the fresh produce. It's how that produce is transformed into unforgettable dishes at the farm café.'We're known for our farm fresh smoothies, our paninis, our pizza and our grilled banana bread,' Lum said. The farm pizza, for example, is a favorite. 'It's got our farm-raised eggplant that's roasted and it's covered with our macadamia nut pesto,' Lum said. 'People love it. It also comes with our side salad which is covered with our little balsamic vinaigrette.' The grilled banana bread is another standout. 'We put about two and a half to three pounds of bananas in every banana loaf,' Lum said. 'We grill it in butter, serve it hot, and it's covered with our vanilla bean caramel and our vanilla bean coconut sauce.' US gained 562,000 millionaires in 2024, far outpacing other countries Kahuku Farms is also home to Hawaiʻi's first locally grown açaí. 'We planted our first açaí trees back in 2008, and we waited a long eight years to get our first harvest,' said Matsudo-Lum. And don't leave without trying the butter mochi. 'We add our handmade lilikoʻi butter right to the batter; and then, we top it off with a dollop of our tangy lilikoʻi right on top,' Matsudo-Lum said. 'It's actually a first come, first serve item; so, we usually sell out pretty quick.' 1. Check the hours before you go: Kahuku Farms is open five days a week from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. They're closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays. It's a good idea to check their website before heading out, especially on holidays or during special events. 2. Leave the outside food at home: Guests are welcome to picnic on the lawn, but Kahuku Farms asks visitors not to bring in outside food. The café's menu is full of fresh, farm-grown options that suit most diets that include dairy-free smoothies and vegetarian dishes. 3. Order ahead if you can: Online ordering is available through the farm's website. With long lines and popular menu items like butter mochi that often sell out, ordering ahead can save you time and disappointment. Cuts to care: The price mothers and children will pay 4. Yes, you can bring your dog: Pets are welcome at Kahuku Farms, and the team has even developed a dog-friendly menu. 'We rescued quite a bit, and we actually do have a doggy menu as well as doggy treats,' Lum said. 'We're trying to create a pet friendly line of gifts that you can buy from our farm.' 5. Be ready for an authentic experience: 'When you do have an authentic farm to table experience, it requires a lot of hands working together. So, yeah, it starts in the field,' Lum said. 'Then, it goes back to our back kitchen where we process everything. And then it's finished up here where the public can enjoy it.' 6. The food is handmade in small batches: 'One thing that drives us crazy and keeps us really busy is that we make everything in small batches by hand,' Lum said. 'It's what our brand stands for.' 7. Don't miss the cocoa and chocolate: Kahuku Farms grows, processes and serves its own chocolate. 'We're doing an artisan beer process,' Lum said. 'We do hand fermenting here. We also do slow drying. I do believe it does create a very special flavor that our finished product has that is unlike a lot of others.' Man, 25, arrested for alleged assault against police officers The café's Cocoa House features chocolate milk, espresso drinks with chocolate and a variety of gift items made from farm-grown cacao. 8. A growing future: Matsuda-Fukuyama Farms still supplies supermarkets with papaya, apple banana, long eggplant and luʻau leaf. But Kahuku Farms has become something much more and is quickly becoming an example of what's possible when generations stay rooted in the land and open their gates to share it. 'Our mission is to connect people to healthy, local food and the land that it grows on,' Lum said. Get news on the go with KHON 2GO, KHON's morning podcast, every morning at 8 So, be sure to vote for this local cafe that is showing the world how to be sustainable while also creating ono yumminess.

Social Security Sounds the Alarm on Possible Payment Delays
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Social Security workers are sounding the alarm that some beneficiaries could see payment delays as the agency undergoes significant changes in the next few weeks. Employees at the Social Security Administration (SSA) told USA Today that thousands of Americans could see delays or stopped checks, as officials have instructed workers to focus on roughly 900,000 complicated cases this month. Why It Matters Nearly 70 million Americans rely on Social Security checks each month. As the federal agency implements changes ordered by President Donald Trump's administration, any delays in payments could make a considerable impact on recipients, who often need the money for basics like housing and food. A Social Security Administration office in Washington, D.C., is pictured on March 26. A Social Security Administration office in Washington, D.C., is pictured on March 26. SAUL LOEB/AFP via Getty Images What To Know SSA employees told USA Today that Social Security recipients who are making simple changes like location or bank account updates could face a longer wait than usual. This will potentially cause delays as the agency focuses on the 900,000 remaining cases, courtesy of the Social Security Fairness Act. "The changes are a response to the Social Security Fairness Act, which provided benefits for those who paid into the system but were otherwise ineligible for Social Security, including police, firefighters, teachers, and other public servants," Drew Powers, founder of Illinois-based Powers Financial Group, told Newsweek. "More than 2 million of these cases were straightforward enough to be automated, but the remaining 900,000 claims are more complicated and must be approved by hand." Newsweek reached out to the SSA for comment via email on Friday. The White House has said the focus on these cases should not affect current recipients, but employees said it could push back simple changes like updating direct deposit information or Medicaid billing issues. Workers have also been instructed to prioritize the updated payments under the act, which allows retired public service workers to receive increased funds. "Using automation, SSA has already expedited over $15.1 billion in long-delayed retroactive payments to more than 2.3 million individuals affected," White House spokesperson Liz Huston said previously. Workers say they have a deadline to update the remaining Social Security Fairness Act claims by July 1, creating a backlog for those with other issues. What People Are Saying Powers also told Newsweek: "The new directive to prioritize Social Security Fairness Act claims, along with staffing cuts enacted by DOGE [Department of Government Efficiency], is creating a backlog to complete other claims and service work like mailing address and direct deposit changes. These delays could be the difference between receiving your check or not." Alex Beene, financial literacy instructor for the University of Tennessee at Martin, told Newsweek: "For months, we've been hearing the only cuts to Social Security would be to administrative offices, not to benefits. However, lost in the discussion was how these administrative cuts could provide their own series of problems. Applications for new beneficiaries, account changes for existing ones, and every issue in between these have to be processed, and with fewer employees to assist, delays could be significant." What Happens Next DOGE, created in the early days of Trump's second term, has set out to cut 12 percent of the SSA staff, offering buyouts for those who took early retirement. The remaining workers are being offered weekend overtime to process claims, according to USA Today. "As of right now, there is no need for concern, but the concerns should motivate those receiving benefits to start the process of enrolling, making changes, or anything else as soon as possible. And, most importantly, be prepared to wait," Beene said.
