Launched to highlight workplaces where people feel supported and inspired, The Muse VIBE Awards celebrate organizations that are building more equitable, inclusive, and engaging work environments. At The Muse, we know that career satisfaction is deeply connected to feeling respected, heard, and empowered at work—and these awards recognize companies that are making that a reality.
Wondering how the awards are determined?
This year’s engagement-based awards are powered by The Muse platform data, reflecting how candidates explore employer profiles, engage with job listings, and take action throughout their career journeys. These metrics provide a real-time view into which employers are resonating most across the platform.
