Centric Bank Honored As a 2019 Best Banks to Work For by American Banker
HARRISBURG, Pa., Aug. 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Centric Bank has been recognized by American Banker for the second consecutive year as a 2019 Best Banks to Work For, announces Patricia (Patti) A. Husic, President and CEO.
"I am incredibly proud of our Centric family. Although banks are defined by numbers, you can't put a price on loyalty, passion, and dedication," says Husic. "Our 90% employee retention rate is an outgrowth of our Centric Bank Way culture initiative. We give our employees room to grow, flexibility to volunteer in the community, access to fitness and wellness programs, and we have fun! The entire team is dedicated to doing meaningful work and making a difference each day. That's not in our job descriptions, it's in our DNA."
"To become one of our Best Banks to Work For, leaders must work purposefully every day to ensure that employees are engaged," says Bonnie McGeer, Executive Editor of American Banker. Banks are evaluated based on a questionnaire that captures information about workplace policies and practices and an employee survey. Among the many factors assessed are leadership philosophy, efforts to recruit a diverse workforce, and the ways in which the banks show employees they are valued.
Centric Bank was highlighted as #44 in this year's list of 85 banks—a testament to a financial institution that prides itself on operating more like a family than a bank. "We savor special moments as a team and lift each other up in times of hardship or need. Banking is a team sport, and when I see a vast network of informal and formal relationships thriving throughout our organization, from the C-suite to the interns, I feel a sense of gratitude that's hard to describe," says Husic.
"When our workforce watches the leadership team living out our culture fundamentals, it charges the atmosphere with positivity, inclusivity, and aspiration," says Christine Pavlakovich, SVP, Director of Human Resources. "Centric Bank has a reputation for ambitious, progressive growth, and we've become a talent magnet in a hypercompetitive marketplace."
Highlighting its Employee Appreciation Day and Mid-Winter Celebration, a diverse, four-generation workforce, and inclusion programs like a new partnership with central PA's LGBT chamber of commerce, the Keystone Alliance, Centric Bank is redefining bankers and the banking experience.
