How These Awards Are Chosen
Fortune partners with Great Place to Work® to determine these national awards each year.

What are some more reasons why 180 Medical is one of the best workplaces in America?
We Recognize and Celebrate Our Team
From arranging special treats and fun events for Employee Appreciation Day to honoring tenured team members with personalized caricatures and bobbleheads for reaching big anniversary milestones with 180 Medical, we love celebrating our people here!
Employees have the opportunity to earn awards for meeting goals and going above and beyond in their job positions. Each quarter, we host a big company meeting at the Oklahoma City headquarters to recognize our top performers. These gatherings, known as our “Homecoming Weeks,” are an opportunity to connect and have some fun while celebrating our big wins together.

Ashayla began her career at 180 Medical as a Confirmation Specialist, later became a Team Manager, and now serves in our Human Resources department as a C&E Strategist. She shared this about her growth here: “For me, 180 Medical has provided such a safe place to grow and develop into not only the leader but also the woman that I am today. I have been given the opportunity to take risks, make mistakes, and completely own every area of my work, all while being myself. That’s not something you get in every workplace. This is an amazing organization, and I’m so glad to be here cheering on the next generation of leaders.”
Ashayla also created and implemented our LEAD@180 program, a company-wide leadership development course. This empowers employees to grow their skills and take the next step in their careers while learning from current leaders within 180 Medical. Many graduates of the program have gone on to earn well-deserved promotions.
