Cohen & Co Named One of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces for 2026

by Suzanne Jakstavich

June 23, 2026

Cohen & Co has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces for 2026. The award honors workplaces that deliver strong employee experiences, sustainable growth and operational integrity.

“Being named one of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces affirms how we grow is equally important as how much we grow,” says Suzanne Jakstavich, chief people officer at Cohen & Co. “Our responsibility is to create an environment where people are challenged, supported and able to build meaningful careers, while continuing to strengthen the firm for the future.”

This comprehensive study incorporated over 2.6 million online employee reviews and publicly available data to evaluate more than 4,700 companies employing between 500 and 1,000 individuals. The evaluation included analysis of over 120 key performance indicators and 55 individual scoring elements across six comprehensive categories: working environment, culture and belonging, compensation and benefits, work-life balance, career progression and training, and company culture.
