"We are very proud of this honor," said Robert A. Bradway, Amgen’s chairman and chief executive officer. "To be recognized on a global scale demonstrates our ongoing commitment to providing staff with an environment in which they are able to grow and thrive — even during challenging times."

"The World’s Best Workplaces are the most sweeping and consistent examples of inclusive company cultures we’ve ever known," said Michael C. Bush, chief executive officer of Great Place to Work. "In a global workforce, alignment is everything, and these companies are fortifying their culture around the world — a nearly impossible feat. Even when tested by the pandemic, these companies recognize sub-communities in each region and their leaders carry an equitable employee experience across cultures."
