Great Place to Work and FORTUNE have honored Old Navy as one of
the 2018 Best Workplaces in Retail. The ranking is based on
anonymous surveys representing over 631,000 employees from Great
Place to Work-Certified companies in the retail industry. Great
Place to Work, a global people analytics and consulting firm,
evaluated over 60 factors measuring whether employees find their
organizations create a Great Place to Work for All™. Eight-five
percent of the evaluation is based on employees’ experiences of
workplace trust and reaching their full potential at the
organization, no matter who they are or what they do. The balance
of each company’s score takes into account employees’ involvement
in company innovation, the organization’s values, and the
effectiveness of their leaders. Old Navy took the 14th spot on the
list.

“At Old Navy, we strive to create an environment uniquely
anchored in fun, where everyone feels like family,” said Sonia
Syngal, President and CEO of Old Navy. “We believe that a great
culture drives a great business, and our team is a key
differentiator that enables Old Navy to compete and win.”
The Best Workplaces in Retail stand out for creating great
workplaces for all employees, regardless of position or other
personal characteristics. In 2018, Old Navy focused on fostering a
purpose-led culture by creating powerful moments that bring fun and
creativity into work every day. Through the launch of internal
programs like the Creative Academy - a training program to inspire
and cultivate creative talent - and the introduction of employee
groups that help shape brand-wide engagement initiatives, the brand
is continuously investing in ways for employees to squeeze more fun
out of life together.
This year, the brand is on track to open more than 60 Old Navy
stores across the U.S., Canada and Mexico by year's end. This kind
of growth takes a lot of hard work and hustle, but also provides
opportunity for its employees: new jobs, new promotions, and new
ways to make an even bigger impact in local communities.
“People feel good shopping at retailers that treat employees
well,” said Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place to Work. “The Best
Workplaces in Retail are thriving in an evolving marketplace
because they inspire and empower their employees to give their best
and provide exceptional experiences for customers.”
The Best Workplaces in Retail list is one of a series of
rankings by Great Place to Work and FORTUNE based on employee
feedback from Great Place to Work-Certified™ organizations. Old
Navy was ranked as a Best Workplace for Diversity and Giving Back
by Great Place to Work and FORTUNE in 2017.
