August 11, 2025 at 16:35 PM EDT

Employee feedback from certification survey confirms Alight’s people-first culture and continued commitment to colleague wellbeing makes Alight a Great Place to Work

Alight, Inc. (NYSE: ALIT), a leading cloud-based human capital and technology-enabled services provider, today announced it has been Certified™ by Great Place To Work^® for the seventh year in a row. This recognition is based on what colleagues say about their experience working at Alight.

What Alight colleagues are saying

Employee feedback from the Great Places to Work Certification survey continues to highlight Alight’s strengths as a workplace:

90% say they can take time off when needed
90% feel welcomed when they join
88% say they’re given meaningful responsibilities
87% believe their colleagues care about one another
86% say management trusts them to do their jobs without micromanaging

This year, 75% of Alight colleagues said the company is a great place to work—18 percentage points higher than the average U.S. company. The certification reflects Alight’s ongoing efforts to build a workplace where people feel supported, valued and empowered to thrive.

“We’re honored to be recognized once again as a Great Place To Work,” said Dave Guilmette, CEO of Alight. “Our colleagues are the heart of everything we do. This certification affirms the strength of our culture, the passion of our teams and the purpose that connects us—to deliver meaningful impact for our clients and their people.”

Great Place To Work is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

“At Alight, we know that a culture of belonging, growth and wellbeing is essential to creating a high-performing, people-centered business,” said Donna Dorsey, Chief Human Resources Officer at Alight. “This recognition is a direct result of listening to our colleagues and acting on their feedback. We’re proud to build a workplace where colleagues feel heard and supported.”

A culture designed around colleagues

Alight’s people-first culture is rooted in three core values: Champion People, Grow with Purpose and Be Alight. These values come to life through the company’s Caring for the Whole Person strategy, which focuses on four dimensions of wellbeing: Mind, Body, Wallet and Life.

Mental health is a year-round priority. Alight has pledged to be a Stigma-Free Company, a recognition from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) for three consecutive years and is the presenting sponsor of NAMI NYC’s Workplace Mental Health Collaborative. Through Mindful Mondays, executive-led discussions and access to resources like the Calm app, Alight normalizes conversations around mental health.
Belonging is fostered. More than 3,000 colleagues participate in 11 Colleague-Led Communities (CLCs) that encourage connection, drive business impact, and build supportive communities across identities and regions.
Equal pay for equal work. Alight conducts annual pay analysis work to help ensure employees in all markets are paid fairly for the work they do.
Feedback leads to change. After the Fall 2024 engagement survey, Alight’s leadership aligned around colleague feedback—focusing on recognition, growth opportunities and leadership visibility. As a result, the company saw significant improvements and employee satisfaction in all three areas by Spring 2025.
Benefits that work for real life. Through Alight’s proprietary Alight Worklife® platform, colleagues access personalized benefits across health, wealth, wellbeing, absence management and navigation—empowering people through every life stage.

Recognized as a top employer

In addition to this certification, Alight was recently named one of Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work for in 2024, further reinforcing its position as a destination employer in the human capital and technology space.

"The Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Alight stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."

According to Great Place To Work research, employees at Certified™ companies are:

4.5 times more likely to have a great boss
93% more likely to look forward to work
2x more likely to feel fairly compensated and promoted
