Milliken & Company ranked 64 in the 12th annual Best Company to Work For list, marking the fifth time it was recognized. It also ranked 17 on FORTUNE’s Best Medium-Sized Company list. Milliken is a major manufacture of contract and automotive textiles and chemicals.
For the second consecutive year, Herman Miller was recognized among the 100 Best Companies to Work For in America. Herman Miller, ranked 89th, is one of three Michigan-based companies to appear on the list and the only representative from the office furniture industry.
