Is Sheetz a good place to work? According to a new list, MTOh, yeah.

Fortune Magazine released its 2021 list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For on Monday. “Prolonged shutdowns. Workforces that felt isolated and overwhelmed. You name it, covid brought it. Still, these companies managed not just to muddle through, but to become role models,” the intro for the 100 list reads.

The Altoona-based convenience chain ranked 83rd on the list, which was ranked by companies’ employees.

”This popular chain of convenience stores — which was founded in 1952 when Bob Sheetz purchased one of his father’s Sheetz Dairy Stores — has kept its family feel despite significant growth,” reads the Fortune write up. “Sheetz encouraged employees to stay home if they felt sick or were high risk — and gave an additional $3.00 per hour to those who continued to work on the front lines.”

According to the magazine, Sheetz now operates 600 locations and employs more than 20,000.

Last year, Sheetz ranked 80th on the Fortune list. It has appeared on the list for seven years.
