Jellyfish-Forbes Americas Best Startup Employers 2026

We’re excited to announce that Jellyfish is named among Forbes and Statista’s ranking of America’s Best Startup Employers 2026.

The list recognizes the top-performing startups in the United States for employer reputation, employee satisfaction, and company growth. The organizers gathered more than 7 million data points from over 20,000 eligible companies, then conducted in-depth analysis on 2,700 employers. Jellyfish is one of just 500 employers included in the final ranking from Forbes.
