Charlotte, NC — October 21, 2025 — NAVEX, the global leader in integrated risk and compliance management software, today announced it has been named a 2025 Top Workplace by the Charlotte Observer. The recognition marks another milestone in NAVEX's journey to build an empowering, values-driven culture where employees can grow, contribute, and thrive.
Unlike traditional awards, Top Workplaces recognition is based solely on confidential employee feedback collected by Energage, LLC. That makes this win special because it comes directly from the people who live NAVEX's mission every day.
"We're intentional about creating an environment where people can do their best work, grow their careers, and feel connected to something larger than themselves," said Cindy Raz, Chief People Officer at NAVEX. Being named a Top Workplace is meaningful because it reflects our employees' positive experience with our culture as well as their trust, engagement, and belief in what we're building together."
Building a Culture That Cultivates Talent
At NAVEX, culture isn't an afterthought, it's a strategic advantage. The company's Be the One philosophy encourages every employee to take ownership of their impact, whether they're supporting a customer, mentoring a colleague, or innovating across NAVEX's portfolio of AI-powered solutions.
In Charlotte, one of NAVEX's fastest-growing hubs, that spirit of collaboration and learning is visible in daily interactions. Leaders across teams invest in coaching, development programs, and opportunities designed to unlock potential, promote inclusion, and recognize excellence.
"When employees feel empowered and supported, that energy flows outward to our customers, our partners, and the markets we serve," added Raz. "Recognition like this reinforces that our people are at the heart of our success."
