People first
At LocumTenens.com, or “LT” as it’s affectionately referred to by our 800+ associates, our success story begins and ends with our people. This philosophy drives everything we do, from creating an inclusive culture to investing in professional growth. At LT, people operations – which includes human resources, talent acquisition, learning & development and associate experience – operates not as separate departments, but as one connected unit, working in tandem to make the associate experience exceptional.
“Awards are the outcome – our people are the reason.”
Keith Newport, SVP of people operations
Celebrating excellence
We’re proud to be consistently recognized on AJC’s list of Top Workplaces, this year nabbing the #8 spot for large companies. 2025 also brought us the 404Ward Business Impact Award for Leading with Equity and Driving Lasting Impact. These accolades reflect intentional efforts to listen, act and create space for every voice to matter. Our recognition spans multiple categories, including innovation, leadership, purpose & values, professional development, appreciation, remote work and work-life flexibility.
Culture that connects
Our culture isn’t accidental; it’s built with intention. Through Associate Networking Groups (ANGs) like PRIDE, Women’s Network, Veterans Network and People of Color Network, we foster belonging and empower associates to bring their authentic selves to work. Our Inclusion Advisory Council drives ongoing conversations about equity, so DEI isn’t a side project, but how we work every day. Associates aren’t just given the opportunity to join these groups but are also empowered to lead them. Our ANGs are guided by passion, intent and creativity to foster a culture of inclusivity.
Future-forward learning
Growth isn’t just one of our core values, it’s part of our DNA. LocumTenens.com invests three times the national average in learning and development, offering tailored training, mentorship, leadership programs and tuition reimbursement. We offer hundreds of group training courses, 1:1 development sessions and self-guided learning opportunities. From leadership coaching to strategic selling, our programs help associates sharpen their skills and advance their careers. At LT, professional development isn’t a perk – it’s a promise.
Listening that leads to action
In addition to associate development, we also emphasize our Listening Strategy, a structured rhythm of engagement surveys, pulse checks, skip-level meetings and focus groups that keep leadership closely connected to the associate experience year-round.
Our annual associate experience survey captures both satisfaction and engagement data, providing insights that shape the company’s strategic priorities for the year ahead.
The ‘Heard’ initiative ensures no feedback is left unanswered. Leaders receive clear communication tools and follow-up plans so they can close the loop with their teams, showing exactly how associate input has driven change.
“We want people to know their voice didn’t just get collected – it made something happen.”
April Novak, director of associate experience
First-class amenities
Our stunning Alpharetta campus is designed for well-being and balance. From an onsite healthcare clinic with free prescriptions, state-of-the-art fitness center, AlleGro childcare and chef-prepared dining, we provide amenities that make life easier and healthier. Associates enjoy flexible remote work options, milestone sabbaticals and comprehensive health benefits so they can thrive at work and in life. We even have onsite therapy dogs to help our associates when they need a little extra love.
LT gives back
At LT, giving back isn’t just something we do, it’s part of who we are. Whether it’s setting up donation drives, holiday shopping for local foster children, or raising money for our Associate Relief Fund to support coworkers in need, our associates love helping others. Our At Your Service initiative is just one of the ways we live out our “Others First” value. Every LT associate receives a paid day to serve at the local charitable organization of their choice, creating opportunities to make a tangible difference. From packing meals to building playgrounds, our teams come together to serve local communities while building connection and purpose. This year alone, we supported more than 120 organizations through monetary donations and hands-on service.
The importance of recognition
We believe in honoring the incredible contributions of our associates through a variety of programs designed to inspire and reward excellence. From monthly awards that spotlight everyday wins to the prestigious Operational Excellence (OpEx) Award and annual President’s Club trip, we make sure hard work never goes unnoticed. “Recognize,” our digital shoutout platform, allows associates to earn points that can be redeemed for gift cards, leave early passes, LT apparel, and more. For those who reach major milestones, our milestone program offers extraordinary perks, including a fully paid month-long sabbatical at 15 years of service. These initiatives are designed to fuel engagement, boost morale and remind every associate that the work they do placing more than 7,000 clinicians annually in 90% of the nation’s top healthcare facilities doesn’t go unrecognized.
Something worth celebrating
Since 1995, we’ve worked hard to outpace our competitors year after year. But we also know how to unwind! From unforgettable kickoff parties to unique associate appreciation days, along with week-long events like LT Daze and Fall Fest, our calendar is packed with activities that make work fun. Whether it’s enjoying themed treats, receive a free chair massage, or competing in games and contests, these moments spark joy across our campus. Every event is designed to celebrate our associates, strengthen our culture and remind us that at LT, we think work is an experience worth celebrating.
