Fortune Media and Great Place To Work Name Penn Mutual to 2026 Best Workplaces for Women List, Ranking No. 65
Philadelphia, PA - October 29, 2026 - Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine have selected The Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company (Penn Mutual) as one of the 2026 Fortune Best Workplaces for Women™. This is Penn Mutual's first time being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at No. 65. Earning a spot means that Penn Mutual is one of the best companies to work for in the country.
To determine the Best Workplaces for Women, Great Place To Work analyzed the survey responses of over 640,000 women who work for Great Place To Work Certified™ companies that were eligible for the list. To be considered, a company must employ at least 50 women, have at least 20% of non-executive managers who are women, and have at least one female C-suite executive.
"What makes this recognition so meaningful is that it is based on employee feedback," says Liz Heitner, Chief Administrative Officer at Penn Mutual. "The women of Penn Mutual spoke about flexibility, collaboration, trust, growth, and support. These are core to the employee experience at Penn Mutual. We're honored to be recognized on this prestigious list for the first time and proud to continue building a workplace and culture where women succeed and thrive."
The Best Workplaces for Women list is highly competitive. Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of the workplace experience. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer consistently positive outcomes for women regardless of job role, work status, or any other demographic identifier.
"Companies that create great experiences for women are companies that create better experiences for every employee," says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. "When a company can show that anyone can build a career and do their life's work, that company is more resilient. These companies are built for the future because they invest in the future of their people."
"Congratulations to the companies recognized as Fortune Best Workplaces for Women," says Fortune Executive Editor Ashley Lutz. "This recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects the voices and experiences of women themselves - and highlights the companies creating environments where they can grow, contribute, and do their best work."
In 2026, Penn Mutual was also named to the Fortune Best Workplaces in Financial Services & Insurance List. Penn Mutual is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work® since 2023.
