Highmark Companies Wins Top 200 Workplace 2025

We’re proud to share that Highmark Companies has received the Top 200 Workplaces Award by the Star Tribune, ranking 7th in the midsize category. Unlike other programs, the Top Workplaces Award is determined exclusively by employee feedback and is based on surveys emailed to company employees. Our team members were surveyed about key aspects of workplace culture, including leadership, communication, growth opportunities, and overall job satisfaction.

We don’t take lightly the role we play in the lives of our employees, and we’re honored to have received this award. Our purpose—Building trust with amazing people, great families, and exceptional products—guides us in everything we do.

What Our Employees Say

We asked our employees what makes Highmark a great place to work, and their responses were both humbling and energizing. These three themes rose to the top:

  1. Strong, supportive culture
  2. Empowerment and growth
  3. Pride in our work and projects

Our Values Speak Volumes

Another guiding principle is our value system. Highmark conveys its values with the acronym W.I.D.T.H, which stands for:

WISE | INTENTIONAL | DRIVEN | TRUSTWORTHY | HUMBLE

These five core values are at the center of all employee decisions and spread into every department. The W.I.D.T.H of Highmark’s foundation is built by the strong character of its employees, and these values are used to attract and retain the best talent in the industry.
