LINCOLNSHIRE, Ill. – Feb. 14, 2022 – Zebra Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ZBRA), an innovator at the front line of business with solutions and partners that deliver a performance edge, today announced it has been named to Forbes’ list of America’s Best Employers for 2022. Based on recommendations from current employees and industry professionals, Zebra made the list of top midsized companies by scoring positively on work-related topics including diversity, working conditions, salary, potential for development and company image.

Alongside more than 10,000 partners, Zebra supports customers with innovative digital solutions to enable automation and improve business operations. The company brings diverse people and big ideas together in a collaborative environment to transform the edge of the enterprise.

“This recognition reinforces our belief that helping our people define paths to fulfilling careers is what sustains our ability reimagine the future of work on the front line,” added Schmitz. “We are honored to be named one of America’s best employers and will continue to support our changemakers, innovators and doers each day.”
