BCT-Bank of Charles Town Named A "Best Bank To Work For" for a Fourth Time by American Banker

CHARLES TOWN, W.Va., Nov. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- (OTC:PTBS) BCT-Bank of Charles Town, also known as The Community's Bank, has been named one of the Best Banks to Work For in 2023. This is the fourth year BCT has been selected for this honor.

The Best Banks to Work For program, which was initiated in 2013 by American Banker and Best Companies Group, identifies, recognizes, and honors U.S. banks for outstanding employee satisfaction. Full results of this year's program are available at American Banker.

American Banker determines the ranking in collaboration with Best Companies Group. The ranking relies on two sources of intel. The first is a survey where employees of an applicant institution complete a survey that measures different areas of workplace satisfaction, such as their views on overall engagement, training and development, and work environment. The second part is a review of each applicant institution's policies and benefits.

"I am delighted we have been selected a best place to work for a fourth time," stated Alice P. Frazier, President and CEO of BCT. "Perhaps even more meaningful is knowing our team members gave us their vote of confidence and continue to think BCT is a great place to work."

Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process and also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final ranking. The program is open to commercial banks, thrifts, savings banks and other chartered retail financial institutions with at least 50 employees in the United States. Those who made the ranking this year ranged in size from 54 to 5,000.
