The Wall Street Journal Recognizes Cintas as One of the Best-Managed Companies of 2025

This is Cintas’ second consecutive year on the Management Top 250.

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cintas Corporation (Nasdaq: CTAS) has been named to The Wall Street Journal’s list of best-managed companies of 2025. This recognition marks the company’s second consecutive year on the Management Top 250.

The ranking, developed by the Drucker Institute, measures corporate management effectiveness by examining five areas:

  • Customer satisfaction
  • Employee engagement and development
  • Innovation
  • Social responsibility
  • Financial strength

“Earning a spot on the Wall Street Journal’s Management Top 250 is a reflection of Cintas’ dedication to effective management practices,” said Todd Schneider, President and CEO of Cintas. “We are proud of this recognition and the way our corporate culture enables us to better serve our employee-partners, customers and shareholders.”

Cintas’ corporate culture remains central to its success and is strengthened by disciplined management systems and strong corporate governance. The company’s corporate characteristics, grounded in professionalism, competitive urgency and positive discontent, guide decision‑making at every level. These principles shape how employee-partners work together, collaborating through well‑established processes to deliver valuable products and exceptional service.

This same foundation informs how Cintas develops its future leaders. Cintas’ holistic approach to management development starts early in employee‑partners’ careers and continues through ongoing coaching and training. Internships provide undergraduates with hands‑on experience across sales, service and production, while the Management Trainee (MT) Program immerses high‑achieving graduates in all aspects of the business. Professional development and mentorship opportunities further support growth at every career stage and ensure a well-managed company in the future.
