Navitus Health Solutions has officially announced that it has been Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the 2025-2026 period—a recognition that underscores the company’s dedication to fostering a positive, inclusive, and growth-oriented workplace. The award, widely considered one of the most respected in the area of workplace culture, is based entirely on the candid feedback of current associates, collected through an independent survey process conducted by Great Place To Work®.
This year’s results speak volumes about Navitus’ internal culture: 85% of associates said that Navitus Health Solutions is a great place to work, a figure that stands more than 25 percentage points above the average for U.S.-based companies. Associates frequently cited the company’s welcoming and engaging culture, as well as the significant opportunities available for professional growth, skill development, and career advancement.
A Culture Built on Purpose and People
David Fields, President and CEO of Navitus Health Solutions, emphasized that the company’s workplace philosophy is deeply rooted in its values.
Navitus Health Solutions strives to be a preferred employer,” Fields said. “We recruit and retain top talent, incorporate equitable representation at every level of the organization, and implement effective learning and development opportunities. We’re proud to become Great Place To Work-Certified™, a recognition that reflects our ongoing commitment to cultivating a culture rooted in purpose, passion, and putting people first.”
The company’s leadership team has consistently highlighted the importance of aligning business objectives with associate well-being. The latest certification reflects not only an ongoing investment in people but also the deliberate creation of an environment where collaboration, innovation, and integrity thrive.
What Makes Great Place To Work® Certification Meaningful
Great Place To Work® is recognized globally as the leading authority on workplace culture, associate experience, and leadership behaviors proven to drive sustained business performance. Certification is not granted through self-assessment—it is earned solely on the strength of verified associate feedback.
Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work®, noted that achieving this designation requires continuous effort and intentional commitment.
Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall associate experience,” Lewis-Kulin said. “Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of associates regarding their company culture. By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Navitus Health Solutions stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its associates.
The recognition affirms that Navitus’ organizational practices and leadership strategies resonate strongly with employees, resulting in high levels of satisfaction, loyalty, and engagement.
More Than Two Decades of Innovation in Pharmacy Benefits
Since its founding more than 20 years ago, Navitus Health Solutions has consistently positioned itself as an innovator in the pharmacy benefits management (PBM) sector. The company first entered the market as a 100% transparent, pass-through PBM, a business model that prioritizes cost reduction and clarity for clients. Over the years, Navitus has expanded its services to include specialty pharmacy and medical specialty management capabilities, reinforcing its mission to reduce costs, improve access, and increase medication affordability for members.
This mission is more relevant than ever, given the growing pressures on the healthcare system and the increasing need for affordable access to life-saving medications. Navitus’ solutions aim to benefit not only health plan sponsors and members but also the broader healthcare ecosystem.
The company’s operational philosophy—removing unnecessary costs from the drug supply chain—has positioned it as a trusted partner for clients seeking both financial transparency and improved clinical outcomes.
A Commitment to Career Growth and Leadership Development
As much as Navitus focuses on innovation and affordability in healthcare, it also places equal emphasis on investing in its associates. The organization has built a robust internal framework for professional development, mentorship, and leadership cultivation.
Associates have access to a variety of learning programs, career pathing resources, and development opportunities designed to help them grow both personally and professionally. Leadership at Navitus has emphasized that its goal is not only to attract top talent but also to develop future leaders from within.
The company’s culture encourages open communication, recognition of achievements, and collaboration across teams. By empowering associates to contribute meaningfully to the organization’s mission, Navitus fosters a sense of shared purpose and collective success.
David Simmons, Chief People & Culture Officer, explained the importance of aligning individual roles with the organization’s broader mission:
Every associate understands how their work contributes to something larger than themselves. This clarity of mission creates alignment, engagement, and a deep sense of meaning,” Simmons said. “We continue to focus on and fuel a work environment centered on community, recognition, communication, mentorship, and continued career growth.
This philosophy translates into tangible workplace practices—such as structured feedback systems, recognition programs, and flexible learning initiatives—that reinforce employee engagement.
Recognition That Reflects Associate Experiences
The certification process for Great Place To Work® is designed to go beyond surface-level impressions, gathering comprehensive insights into employee perceptions of trust, fairness, respect, and workplace camaraderie.
Navitus’ high associate rating signals a work environment where people feel valued and heard. It reflects strong internal communication, transparent leadership, and a focus on building genuine connections between colleagues. Associates describe the workplace as one where new ideas are encouraged, contributions are appreciated, and success is celebrated collectively.
This positive feedback loop not only strengthens morale but also directly supports the company’s ability to innovate in the healthcare space. Engaged employees are more likely to contribute creative solutions, collaborate effectively, and remain committed to long-term goals—factors that are essential in a competitive and rapidly changing industry.
Aligning Culture With Mission
Navitus’ workplace culture is not an isolated HR initiative—it is closely intertwined with the company’s broader mission to improve healthcare affordability and access. The emphasis on purpose-driven work resonates deeply with associates, who understand that their contributions have a direct impact on patient outcomes and community well-being.
By linking daily operations to a mission of removing unnecessary costs from the drug supply chain, Navitus provides its associates with a sense of pride and ownership in the organization’s achievements. This cultural alignment has been a defining factor in the company’s ability to maintain high employee satisfaction while delivering measurable results for clients.
