Centier has been listed among the top four “Best Places to Work in Indiana” by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce. Centier was honored as one of the top companies in the state for their strong workplace environment based on survey results from its employees. Centier was ranked among 70 employers throughout the state, and placed 4th in the large company category for employers with 250 or more employees.
This was the third year that Centier received this prestigious honor. The award ranking was announced at an awards dinner hosted by the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, May 5th in Indianapolis. Centier was the only Lake County employer and one of only four banks that made the list.
The Best Companies Group has overseen similar award programs in 19 other states. ModernThink, LLC, a workplace excellence consulting firm, handled the selection process. The basis for this initiative is Fortune magazine’s noted “100 Best Places to Work for” list. Centier was chosen as one of the Best Places to Work after receiving an in-depth evaluation identifying the strengths and weaknesses according to their employees. Results were tabulated with 75% of the final score based on associates surveys and 25% based on employee benefits.
“We are honored to receive this award for the third year in a row,” stated Chrisanne Christ, Vice President of Human Resources. “The most rewarding part of this honor is receiving such positive feedback from our employees. It’s because of their survey results that we are a ‘Best Place to Work’. This award is a testament to every member of the Centier family.”
The Centier organization was recognized for their outstanding corporate culture that promotes a family-friendly atmosphere and includes many unique benefits for both part-time and full-time employees. In addition to a 401k and ASOP plans, Centier offers associates flexible scheduling, day care discounts, infertility assistance, wedding and high school graduation bonuses, and a senior care benefit for associates, parents, and grandparents.
