DALLAS, Jan. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- MoneyGram International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MGI) ("MoneyGram" or the "Company"), a leading global financial technology company that connects the world's communities, has been named a recipient of the 2023 Top Workplaces USA award. This honor is based entirely on employee feedback as part of Top Workplaces, the leading employer recognition program in the United States, and it marks the second consecutive year that MoneyGram has received the award.

MoneyGram Recognized as Top Workplace in the USA for Second Consecutive Year

"We are thrilled to again receive the Top Workplaces USA award which stems directly from employee feedback. This recognition is especially meaningful as it signifies that – while MoneyGram has reinvented itself into a global digital fintech – our team remains focused, engaged and aligned to our corporate strategy and trajectory," said Alex Holmes, MoneyGram Chairman and CEO.

Holmes continued: "In fact, I truly believe that our innovative culture has enhanced employee satisfaction and helped us continue to attract the best and brightest talent. Many of our new fintech offerings started as ideas from within the organization, illustrating that our team is energized and encouraged to bring forward solutions from any corner – and as a leader, that's incredibly motivating."

To determine the 2023 Top Workplaces USA winners, Energage, an employee engagement platform and technology company, administered anonymous third-party surveys to MoneyGram employees to measure various culture drivers that are critical to an organization's success. These included alignment with the company strategy, confidence in the company's trajectory, and opportunities for personal career growth and development.

"As we continue to traverse an evolving workplace landscape, we recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to employee needs and preferences, so we've strived to build a model that best supports everyone's unique circumstances," shared Robert Villaseñor, General Counsel, Corporate Secretary and Chief Administrative Officer at MoneyGram. "These survey results are extremely encouraging, and we look forward to building on them, uncovering new ways to prioritize engagement and creating additional opportunities for employee communication and feedback."

In addition to receiving the 2022 Top Workplaces USA award last year, MoneyGram received awards in Work-Life Flexibility, Employee Well-Being, and Compensation & Benefits. The 2023 category awards will be awarded later this year. In November of 2022, MoneyGram was also recognized as one of the Top 100 Places to Work and Top 25 Places to Work out of large companies in Dallas by The Dallas Morning News.

"Last but certainly not least, thank you again to all of our incredible employees for taking the time to complete this survey and for everything you do to continue to make MoneyGram a great place to work," Holmes concluded.
