Author : Strive Health

DENVER — Jan. 10, 2025 — Built In announced that Strive Health, the national leader in value-based kidney care, was honored in its 2025 Best Places to Work Awards. The annual awards program includes companies of all sizes, from startups to those in the enterprise, and honors both remote-first employers as well as companies in large tech markets across the U.S. This is the fourth consecutive year Built In has recognized Strive.   

“The Strive team is honored to be recognized again for our culture and benefits,” said Dave Thornton, Chief People Officer at Strive. “Caring for one another is one of our core values, and this award is a direct reflection of that value.”  

Built In determines the winners of Best Places to Work based on an algorithm, using company data about compensation and benefits. To reflect the benefits candidates are searching for more frequently on Built In, the program also weighs criteria like remote and flexible work opportunities, programs for DEI and other people-first cultural offerings.   

“Being recognized as a Best Place to Work is a testament to these companies’ commitment to building a workplace where individuals and innovation thrive,” said Maria Christopoulos Katris, CEO and Founder of Built In. “At Built In, we understand that great companies are powered by great teams, and this achievement showcases their dedication to fostering a culture of growth, inclusivity, and excellence. Congratulations on this well-deserved honor.” 

Strive has been recognized with more than 10 workplace awards in the past few years. In addition to the four Built In awards, Forbes honored Strive as a best U.S. startup employer for three consecutive years and LinkedIn named Strive a top startup in Denver in 2024.
