Park Bank Earns 2021 Great Place to Work Certification™

Madison, Wisconsin – Park Bank is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place to Work®. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at Park Bank. This year, 89% of employees said it’s a great place to work – 30% more than the average U.S. company.

Great Place to Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

“Great Place to Work Certification™ isn’t something that comes easily – it takes ongoing dedication to the employee experience,” said Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of global recognition at Great Place to Work. “It’s the only official recognition determined by employees’ real-time reports of their company culture. Earning this designation means that Park Bank is one of the best companies to work for in the country.”

"We are thrilled to become Great Place to Work-Certified™ as we consider associate experience a top priority," said President and CEO of Park Bank Jim Hegenbarth. “We owe our continued success to our team of dedicated associates at Park Bank. We appreciate and celebrate them for all they do to earn this incredible recognition.”

At Park Bank, we believe drive and ambition come from the heart. That achievement means different things to each of us. That there’s no one way to what’s next. And our story of achievement starts right here – with each member of our team.

No matter our job openings, we are always searching for great people to join our team. And while a culture-fit is nice, a culture-add is even better.

What does that mean? It means we are looking for those who share our core values, but who do so authentically and sincerely. They add to our culture by bringing their diverse and unique perspectives to the table. Because we can’t keep improving if we remain the same.

According to Great Place to Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.
