CARLSBAD, Calif. (September 21, 2023) – Newsweek announced their annual rankings for the Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® list, and TaylorMade Golf was named to the list for the second consecutive year. The 2023 Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces® are the result of a collaboration with the Best Practice Institute (BPI), a leadership development and benchmark research company.
The results were determined after surveying more than 2 million employees from businesses with workforces varying in size from 50 to more than 100,000. The list recognizes companies that have created a workplace where employees feel respected, inspired, and appreciated and are at the center of the business model.
“TaylorMade is proud to be featured on Newsweek’s Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces list for the second consecutive year. Our foundational principles of having an unmatched passion for the game of golf, a beyond driven work ethic and golftimistic attitude are what bring the most innovative products to golfers across the world. I can’t wait to celebrate together with our TaylorMade family and the amazing people that earned this honor.”David Abeles, TaylorMade Golf CEO & President
The key areas included in the analysis are based on how well companies demonstrate the areas within the Spark Model as defined by BPI including Systemic Collaboration, Positive Vision of the Future, Alignment of values, Respect, and Killer Achievement. Employee sentiments and emotions indicating how engaged employees are, how positive they feel about their workplace, and how committed they are to the organization’s success were analyzed to identify the Top 100 Most Loved Workplaces.

Newsweek then conducted additional research into every company on the list, as well as the top runners up, to determine the final list of 100 companies and their ranking. (The list includes both U.S. firms and companies with a strong U.S. presence that are based overseas.)
