MountainOne Earns High Ranking on Best Places to Work List
NORTH ADAMS — MountainOne announced it ranked 17th in the Medium Company category (100-249 employees) on the Boston Business Journal’s 2026 Best Places to Work list. This recognition marks the second consecutive year MountainOne has been honored and reflects an improvement from its 21st-place ranking in 2025.
The annual Best Places to Work awards recognize Massachusetts employers that have created exceptional workplace cultures and employee experiences. Rankings are determined through confidential employee surveys conducted by Quantum Workplace, which measure areas such as workplace satisfaction, leadership, communication, professional development, compensation, benefits, and overall employee engagement.
“MountainOne is deeply committed to developing homegrown talent through our investment in our people. By offering meaningful professional development opportunities, investing in our employees, and promoting from within, we attract and retain the very best talent. This investment in people extends to our commitment to offering comprehensive benefit programs and to cultivating an environment that is welcoming and supportive to all employees,” said Beth Petropulos, senior vice president, Senior Human Resources and SAFE Act officer at MountainOne.
“Earning a place on this list for a second consecutive year is an achievement we’re incredibly proud of,” she added. “Moving up in the rankings reinforces what we’ve long believed: when employees are supported, connected, and empowered to succeed, our organization, customers, and communities all benefit.”
The Boston Business Journal honored 90 Massachusetts companies across a variety of industries during an awards celebration held June 11 at the Westin Copley Place in Boston. MountainOne employees who accepted the award on the company’s behalf included Peter Barrow, Kevin Carpenter, Ethan Coe, Erin Galvin, Erik Ray, and Devon Stone.
“A strong workplace culture doesn’t happen by accident. One way we stand out is through our robust community engagement program that provides meaningful opportunities for employees to give back to their communities in ways that matter to them,” said Jill Amato, senior vice president, Marketing & Community Banking officer. “Furthermore, maintaining strong company values as well as a distinct and fun brand identity has paved the way for a sense of employee pride and ownership.”
As MountainOne continues to grow, it remains committed to attracting talented individuals who want to be part of an award-winning workplace culture where employees are supported, recognized, and encouraged to grow.
