OAKLAND, Calif., Dec. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Global people analytics and consulting firm Great Place to Work® and Fortune have unveiled their annual ranking of the country's 100 Best Workplaces for Diversity. Global hotel and hospitality company Hilton, with a high representation in every demographic group and a remarkable effort to fully include and develop all of their people, takes the No. 1 spot on this year's ranking, moving up from No. 14 last year.
The Top 10 Best Workplaces for Diversity in 2018
"The 2018 Best Workplaces for Diversity are at the forefront of creating workplaces that are better for business and better for their people," said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work. "These workplaces not only pay attention to how diverse their workforce and management teams are, but close critical gaps in how all their people are treated and developed day-to-day."
Among the newcomers to the list this year are Cisco (No. 7), Progressive Insurance (No. 10), McDonald's USA (No. 24), KPMG (No. 36), and DHL Express U.S. (No.88).
The Best Workplaces for Diversity not only stand out for how diverse each organization and its management team are, but for how employees themselves report they are really treated in their workplaces. To determine the list, Great Place to Work analyzed the experiences of women, people of color, LGBTQ people, employees who are Boomers or older, and people who have disabilities, comparing their survey results to their colleagues. All told, these anonymous survey responses to more than 60 survey questions reflecting day-to-day workplace experiences represented more than 4.4 million employees' feedback. Read the full list here.
Findings from the 2018 list of the Best Workplaces for Diversity:

Controlling for each of these characteristics, it found that an employee's gender is least likely to affect their workplace experience, while differences in race/ethnicity and age predict vastly different on-the-job experiences.
For example, on average:
