Progressive Recognized for Outstanding Company Culture in 2026

Progressive has been recognized as the leading company on Forbes America's Best Employers for Company Culture 2026 list, highlighting its dedication to an employee-centered environment. This acknowledgment underscores the efforts of Progressive's workforce in cultivating a supportive and efficient workplace.

Bill Clawson, Chief Human Resources Officer at Progressive, expressed pride in the company's success in nurturing a thriving culture. He emphasized that an engaged staff with growth opportunities enhances employee commitment to their roles and service to customers and communities.

Progressive places great importance on employee feedback in shaping its organizational culture. This year, the company launched "Progressive Listens," an initiative designed to improve communication and collaboration by enhancing feedback channels. The firm's annual Gallup Engagement & Culture Survey consistently ranks them in the top percentile among surveyed companies.

In response to diverse employee feedback from channels including one-on-one discussions and Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), Progressive has customized its employee benefits and programs to align with the needs of its workforce and communities.

The company's leadership is committed to fostering a positive culture, particularly in a predominantly remote or hybrid work setting. In 2025, Progressive introduced the "Destination: Progress" campaign to highlight career development opportunities within the organization. CEO Tricia Griffith actively engages with new employees to reinforce the company's core values, with the leadership team promoting a culture of openness and continuous improvement.

The Forbes accolade was developed in collaboration with Statista, based on a survey of over 217,000 U.S. employees at companies with at least 1,000 staff members. Progressive's top placement reflects its strong employee feedback and esteemed reputation in the insurance industry.

This recognition is among several recent honors for Progressive, including a No. 19 ranking on the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® 2026 list. Founded in 1937, Progressive continues to lead in providing personal and commercial auto insurance as well as other insurance services. Its shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PGR.
