Baton Rouge Employers
The Capital Region's business community is led by Fortune 500 companies and top Baton Rouge employers that maintain key operations centers and facilities in the region and a thriving startup community in sectors such as digital media and software development.
Southern Business & Development magazine named Baton Rouge the Major Market of the Year for 2013, due in part to hundreds of millions of dollars in investments from companies that continue to build upon an already strong presence in the region such as ExxonMobil, as well as newer entrants to the market like IBM, which in 2013 announced a major, 800-job technology services center for the downtown area. With an abundance of economic activity in the region, top employers in Baton Rouge are looking to fill their ranks with local workforce talent.
