MIDLAND, Mich. – September 17, 2025 – Dow (NYSE: DOW) has been named #1 on the 2025 Best Workplaces in Manufacturing & Production™ list by Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine.

"Dow's expertise in chemistry, materials science, and engineering drives innovation and excellence across our portfolio – and as important as what we do is how we do it," said Jim Fitterling, Dow chair and chief executive officer.

It’s a testament to the passion they bring in building careers that support their families and communities, all while advancing a more sustainable future for everyone.”
