Florida Blue named top large employer by influential magazine
February 25, 2021 - Florida Blue, the state’s Blue Cross Blue Shield plan, has been recognized by Forbes as one of America’s 2021 Best Large Employers. Headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida Blue employs more than 800 people in Tampa Bay and west Florida, according to spokeswoman Lissette Campos. To determine its rankings, Forbes, partnering with research firm Statista, anonymously surveyed 50,000 people working for U.S. businesses with at least 1,000 employees. Respondents were asked to rate how likely they’d be to recommend their employer to others and to nominate organizations other than their own.
