For neurodivergent employees, the right environment can have a huge impact on confidence, wellbeing and career growth. The encouraging news is that more companies are taking meaningful steps to create workplaces that support a wide range of cognitive needs.

The most neurodivergent-friendly companies are doing things like inclusive hiring, empowering employee-led support groups, providing personalised adjustments, training managers, and running company-wide initiatives. 

The best are also listening to what neurodivergent candidates are looking for and finding ways to accommodate that. For example, Flexa data shows that neurodivergent candidates were most likely to prioritise work life balance (59.2% of users), and salary (57.8%), in the first half of 2026. When it comes to company culture, 60.6% preferred one based on autonomy and trust-based and half (50%) chose learning and growth-oriented cultures. 

The location preferences of neurodivergent candidates was also pretty clear:

• 50.9% wanted fully-remote work
• 29.3% chose remote-first
• 10.1% picked hybrid
• Just 1.4% selected office-based

Which are the most neuroinclusive companies?

The Flexa Awards 2026 celebrated the most inclusive companies with a dedicated award — but it’s important to highlight the specific ways that employers are focusing on neuroinclusivity, too.
