bankESB Wins Three Top Workplaces Culture Excellence Awards

EASTHAMPTON — bankESB recently received three Top Workplaces Culture Excellence awards in the areas of work-life flexibility, compensation and benefits, and purpose and values.

Top Workplaces Culture Excellence awards from Energage celebrate organizations that are dedicated to building an exceptional, people-first culture. The work-life flexibility award celebrates organizations that provide options to their employees in how and where they work and that have managers who care for their employees’ concerns. The compensation and benefits award recognizes organizations that provide employees with both material rewards and appreciation for their work. The purpose and values award celebrates organizations that have successfully embedded their mission and values into their culture.

Winners are chosen based solely on employee feedback gathered through an anonymous, third-party employee engagement survey, administered by Energage, a leading provider of technology-based employee engagement tools. More than 42,000 organizations across the country were invited to participate in the survey. Results are calculated by comparing the survey’s research-based statements, including 15 culture drivers that are proven to predict high performance, against industry benchmarks.

“We’re honored to be nationally recognized for fostering a workplace culture that puts our people first,” bankESB President and CEO Matthew Sosik said. “We try hard to cultivate a workplace that unlocks our employees’ potential by showing appreciation for their efforts and genuine interest in their well-being. Because these awards are based on our employees’ feedback, we’re thrilled that they think we’re on the right track.”
