This is the second consecutive year Johnson Controls has been named to the list, which is determined by a panel of industry-expert judges and public votes.
The judges anonymously evaluate each company on its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, culture and engagement, career development, full-time employment prospects, and unique aspects of the program.

In 2023, Johnson Controls hosted more than 300 interns in North America and more than 1,000 globally. In addition to tasks in their work teams, interns participated in a variety of development activities to prepare them for the future.
Activities included technology challenges, professional development sessions, virtual learning resources, local volunteering events, and future opportunities within the company, all to develop their core skills and values.
