Bloomington, MN— The City of Bloomington is proud to announce its recognition as one of Minnesota’s Top Workplaces for 2025, coming in at No. 45 among organizations with more than 500 employees.

“We are honored to be recognized as one of Minnesota’s Top Workplaces,” said Bloomington Mayor Tim Busse. “This reflects the dedication and passion of our staff, who serve the community with integrity and excellence every day.” 

More than 5,000 organizations were invited to participate in the survey and more than 149 thousand employees shared their views.
