BorgWarner Recognised Among America's Best Employers for Fifth Consecutive Year

By MGN Editorial•August 13, 2026 at 06:00 PM

Automotive and industrial technology supplier BorgWarner has been named to the Forbes America's Best-In-State Employers 2026 list, marking the fifth straight year the Michigan-based firm has received the distinction.

BorgWarner, the Auburn Hills, Michigan-based powertrain and propulsion technology manufacturer, has been included in the Forbes America's Best-In-State Employers 2026 list for the fifth consecutive year, according to a company announcement via PR Newswire. The recognition, produced in collaboration with global statistics portal Statista, evaluates employers across the United States based on employee satisfaction, workplace culture, and organisational reputation. BorgWarner's sustained presence on the list reflects the company's ongoing commitment to workforce development and employee engagement across its U.S. operations. While BorgWarner is primarily known as an automotive supplier, the company has in recent years expanded its footprint in marine and industrial propulsion markets. Its electrification technologies, thermal management systems, and turbocharging solutions have found increasing application in commercial marine vessels and hybrid propulsion platforms — sectors under growing pressure to reduce emissions in line with International Maritime Organization (IMO) decarbonisation targets. For maritime industry stakeholders, BorgWarner's employer standing carries relevance beyond corporate accolades. As the sector competes for skilled engineers and technical talent capable of developing next-generation propulsion systems, suppliers that demonstrate strong workplace cultures are better positioned to attract and retain the expertise needed to drive marine technology innovation. The Forbes Best-In-State Employers list is compiled through independent surveys of employees across a broad range of industries, making it a widely regarded benchmark for workplace quality in the United States. *Source: PR Newswire / BorgWarner*
