SharedXpertise Media, publishers of HRO Today magazine, has announced the 2025 edition of the HR100, a data-driven ranking of the most exemplary Human Resources departments in business today. The research team reviewed nearly 1,000 companies to identify the top 100 HR departments, addressing a significant gap in the HR industry where no definitive source previously existed for identifying which companies excel in human resources management.
The HR100 scores and ranks HR departments across eight core performance areas: workplace culture, employee benefits, diversity and inclusion, employee development and talent management, human resources innovation, leadership development, talent acquisition, and employer brand. Performance in these categories is aggregated into an index that provides a comprehensive score for overall HR excellence. This methodology represents a significant advancement in quantifying HR department effectiveness beyond traditional service provider rankings.
Elliot Clark noted that this year's HR100 includes both well-known corporations and companies that aren't household names, demonstrating that quality HR work occurs across all industries and company sizes. The ranking reveals that exceptional human resources practices are not limited to large technology firms or Fortune 500 companies but can be found in organizations of varying scales and sectors.
The top 10 companies on the 2025 HR100 include ADP, Capital One, Cisco, Panda Restaurant Group, Inc., Nvidia, Adobe, Workday, ServiceNow, Accenture, and Microsoft.

The HR100 establishes a new standard for evaluating corporate HR department performance, moving beyond customer satisfaction ratings of service providers to assess the internal HR functions that directly impact employee experience and organizational success.
