Ryan Named One of the Best Places to Work in Illinois for the 14th Year

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ryan, a leading global tax services and software provider, has been named one of the Best Places to Work in Illinois for the 14th year, ranking first in the Large Company category. The statewide awards program, presented by the Workforce Research Group and published by the Daily Herald Suburban Business journal, recognizes top organizations committed to creating outstanding workplace experiences.

“Receiving this honor for more than a decade is a testament to our dedicated team members and the outstanding contributions they make every day,” said Ginny B. Kissling, President Americas and Chief Operating Officer. “To our incredible Illinois team—your talent and commitment continue to strengthen what makes Ryan a truly great place to work. Thank you for all you do.”

The Best Places to Work in Illinois awards are based on a two-part survey process that provides a thorough assessment of each participating employer. Part one includes an Employer Assessment, which captures details about company policies and practices. Part two is an Employee Feedback Survey, designed to gather insight into team members’ workplace experiences. Results from both the employer and employee surveys are combined to determine the final rankings.

This recognition underscores Ryan’s commitment to fostering a positive work environment and prioritizing team member satisfaction and well-being. The Firm continues to lead the way through purposeful advancement and growth opportunities, generous family and personal leave policies, and innovative programs such as RyanTHRIVE, a wellness initiative supporting physical, career, emotional, and financial well-being, and myRyan, a results-based approach to working that promotes true work-life success.
