VSP Vision Named to 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces for Women List

VSP Vision™ has been recognized as one of the 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces for Women™, marking its debut appearance on the list in the Large Company category for organizations with over 1,000 employees. The distinction, awarded by Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine, highlights VSP Vision’s commitment to empowering women across all levels of its workforce, from the frontline to executive leadership.

“This recognition is a powerful validation of women across our workforce who’ve shared they feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow,” said Kristi Cappelletti-Matthews, Chief Human Resources Officer at VSP Vision. “We’re proud of the culture we strive to foster every day in support of employees – grounded in our values that promote care, trust, inclusion and teamwork.”

Empowering Women Through Inclusion and Growth

At the core of VSP Vision’s inclusive culture is its Women’s Inclusion Network (WIN), a Business Resource Group (BRG) designed to provide mentorship, professional development, and storytelling opportunities. Through WIN, employees gain access to career growth pathways and a stronger sense of belonging and representation within the organization.

Survey results from Great Place To Work Certified™ employees affirm this culture of inclusion:

  • 95% of women at VSP Vision agreed that “people are treated fairly regardless of gender,” up 3% from 2024.
  • 87% said they can take time off when needed, a 7% increase year over year.

Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work, commended the honourees:

“These companies show that when women thrive in the workplace, everybody else does too. That’s what it means to be a For All company, where every employee can have a great experience and reach their full potential.”

Recognition Beyond Gender Equity

This accolade follows another milestone for VSP Vision, which was recently ranked among the 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces in Health Care, its second consecutive year on that list, rising 13 spots to 16th place. According to Great Place To Work, 84% of VSP Vision employees describe it as a great place to work, compared to 57% at a typical U.S. company.

The Fortune Best Workplaces for Women list is based on survey responses from nearly 605,000 women at Great Place To Work Certified™ companies. To qualify, companies must employ at least 50 women, maintain 20% or more female non-executive managers, and include at least one woman in a C-suite leadership role.
