Apotex Inc., a Toronto-based pharmaceutical company, has been officially certified as a Great Place to Work in Canada, the United States, and India. This marks the first time in its 50-year history that Apotex has participated in the annual survey conducted by Great Place to Work, a global authority on workplace culture and employee satisfaction.

The certification, based on employee feedback, positions Apotex as a leading employer, with high marks for corporate culture, growth potential, and workplace inclusivity. The survey, which had an 84% participation rate at Apotex—well above the average of 50%—highlighted a sense of optimism among employees and a strong connection to the company’s purpose.

“We are incredibly proud to be named a Great Place to Work,” said Allan Oberman, President and CEO of Apotex. “This recognition reflects our collective commitment to excellence and the positive impact of our Winning Behaviours of Individual Accountability, Rigor & Discipline, and Continuous Improvement on our business and culture.”

Employees reported feeling a strong sense of pride and loyalty to the organization, citing Apotex’s reputation for its service to patients, customers, and communities. The company’s inclusive culture, where people are treated fairly, was also emphasized as a major strength.

Carina Vassilieva, Chief Human Resources Officer at Apotex, echoed Oberman’s sentiments, pointing to the high level of employee engagement. “Our impressive participation rate and the positive feedback from our colleagues are a testament to the inclusive and supportive culture we are building,” she said. “As we celebrate our 50th year, our overall engagement results demonstrate the strength of our culture today and guide us in further shaping the Apotex of the future.”

Apotex is the largest pharmaceutical company based in Canada, with a global reach that includes operations in the U.S., Mexico, and India. The company produces a broad portfolio of generic, biosimilar, and branded pharmaceutical products.

Great Place to Work provides certification to companies based on employee survey results and other criteria, recognizing top employers in Canada and globally.
