Boston Business Journal Names William James College One of Massachusetts 2025 Best Places to Work

BOSTON (May 1, 2025) — The Boston Business Journal has named William James College to its 2025 Best Places to Work — the BBJ’s exclusive ranking of the Massachusetts companies that have built outstanding work environments for their people.

The 100 companies honored in 2025 range in size and industry, with winners representing the nonprofit, education and technology sectors, retail industry, health care space, and commercial real estate. 

“It is gratifying to learn that our College, which helps organizations and agencies create inspiring, inclusive, and effective workplace environments, is itself one of the Best Places to Work,” said Nicholas Covino, William James College President. “Thank you to the BBJ for continuing to emphasize the importance of supporting our dedicated employees.”

The organizations that met criteria for office location and size participated in employee-engagement surveys distributed by Business Journal partner Quantum Workplace. Employees were asked to rate their work environment, work-life balance, job satisfaction, advancement opportunities, management, compensation, and benefits. 

Based on the results of those surveys, businesses were assigned a score out of 100 percent and ranked by Quantum. The top-rated organizations are listed in five size categories — extra small (20 to 49 employees), small (50 to 99 employees), medium (100 to 249 employees), large (250 to 499 employees) and extra-large (500 or more).

"The companies that comprise this year’s Best Places to Work are among the most diverse in the decades we’ve been doing this program,” said Carolyn Jones, Market President and Publisher of the Boston Business Journal. “Their commitment to teamwork, employee engagement, flexibility and trust are the model to which the region’s businesses look for inspiration.”

The Best Places to Work celebration will be held in-person on June 12th at The Westin Copley Place from 5:30pm – 8:30pm. The special publication will appear in the June 13th weekly edition of the Boston Business Journal.
