MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (JUNE 19, 2023) — Great Clips, Inc. has been named one of the Top 200 Workplaces in Minnesota by the Star Tribune. The company was ranked #18 on the midsized company list.

Headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, Great Clips, Inc. is the franchisor of the Great Clips® brand, the world’s largest salon brand. Corporate staff include home office staff in Minnesota and field staff throughout the United States and Canada. 

“This award recognizes the work that everyone at Great Clips, Inc. does to live out our values,” said Steve Hockett, CEO of Great Clips, Inc. “All staff members have contributed to building a collaborative, inclusive culture with a clear intent on making a difference for our franchisees and our communities.”  

Produced by the same team that compiles the 32-year-old Star Tribune 100 report of the best-performing public companies in Minnesota, Top Workplaces recognizes the most progressive companies in Minnesota based on employee opinions measuring engagement, organizational health and satisfaction. The analysis included responses from 124,719 employees at Minnesota public, private and nonprofit organizations. 

The rankings in the Star Tribune Top 200 Workplaces are based on survey information collected by Energage, an independent company specializing in employee engagement and retention. To qualify for the Star Tribune Top Workplaces, a company must have more than 50 employees in Minnesota. Over 5,000 companies were invited to participate. Rankings were composite scores calculated purely on the basis of employee responses.

Star Tribune CEO and Publisher Steve Grove said, “The companies in the Star Tribune Top 200 Workplaces deserve high praise for creating the very best work environments in the state of Minnesota. My congratulations to each of these exceptional companies.”  

A complete list of those selected is available at startribune.com/mn-top-workplaces and was also published in the Star Tribune Top Workplaces special section on Sunday, June 18.
