Magnit received platinum status in the ranking of the best employers in Russia according to Forbes. In the 2026 list there are 222 companies, only 30 received the highest category.
The ranking is based on an analysis of ESG indicators: companies were evaluated in three areas - "employees and society", "ecology" and "corporate governance". There are no places in the usual sense: the participants were divided into four groups - "Platinum", "Gold", "Silver" and "Bronze".
For Magnet, which employs approximately 388,000 people, it is also about scale: working conditions, career opportunities and social programs in large retail affect hundreds of thousands of people.
Separately, the company entered the "gold" category of the ranking of the best employers for youth. In a market where employers are increasingly competing for new hires, this becomes a distinct competitive advantage.
