Corpay Named to Newsweek’s List of 2025 Global Most Loved Workplaces®

Corpay Ranked as #39 Among the Top 100 Global Companies Recognized for Employee Sentiment and Satisfaction

Newsweek Magazine recently announced the 2025 Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces®, developed in partnership with Most Loved Workplace®, a division of Best Practice Institute (BPI). – Corpay, Inc. (NYSE: CPAY), a leading corporate payments company, was ranked #39 on this prestigious list, which highlights companies across the globe where employees genuinely love to work.

The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list is based on research from BPI’s Love of Workplace Index®, drawing on data from more than two million employees worldwide. Companies featured have demonstrated extraordinary commitment to building cultures of trust, respect, purpose, and employee connection, regardless of size, location, or industry.

“It’s an honor to earn this recognition because it validates our commitment to creating a culture where all employees are acknowledged, valued, and nurtured in a way that leads to professional growth and personal happiness,” said Crystal Williams, chief human resources officer at Corpay. “We realize there is no finish line when it comes to creating a positive company culture, but at Corpay we remain fully invested in the well-being, quality of life, productivity, and careers of our employees, now and in the future.”

The ranking is informed by employee perspectives in five key areas: how positive employees feel about their future at the company, career achievement, alignment of employer values with employee values, respect at all levels, and collaboration. Additional factors—such as diversity and belonging, leadership, and professional development—were also evaluated in relation to these core sentiment drivers.

“As we mark five years of recognizing the world’s Most Loved Workplaces®, it’s an honor to spotlight companies that place employee well-being at the center of their workplace cultures,” said Jennifer H. Cunningham, Newsweek’s Global Editor in Chief. “In today’s rapidly changing world, this year’s list reflects a growing global shift toward human-centered leadership as a key driver of resilience and success.”

“This year’s Global Most Loved Workplaces® show what’s possible when leaders turn employee sentiment into business strategy,” said Louis Carter. “From trust to purpose to collaboration, these companies are using data-driven insights to build cultures people don’t want to leave. This year’s Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® showcase how leading with love, trust, and alignment drives performance, loyalty, and lasting impact. We’re proud to work with Newsweek to highlight their achievements on a global stage.”

Methodology

The 2025 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list was developed in partnership with Best Practice Institute (BPI) using its proprietary Love of Workplace Index®, which includes direct employee survey responses and analysis across five core sentiment areas: employee satisfaction with future vision, career achievement, values alignment, respect, and collaboration. More than two million employees worldwide were surveyed across companies ranging in size from 10 to over 10,000 employees. Additional evaluation included written submissions and interviews with several hundred company executives, along with analysis of external public ratings. Newsweek’s global editorial team then conducted independent research to finalize the list—recognizing companies that place trust, belonging, and respect at the center of their business and workplace culture.
