Jenks, Okla., Dec. 9, 2019 – Gateway First Bank has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2019 honor by The Oklahoman. The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by research partner Energage, LLC, a leading provider of technology-based employee engagement tools. The anonymous survey measures several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.
“The Top Workplaces award is about much more than recognition and celebration,” said Eric Rubino, CEO of Energage. “Our research also shows that these organizations achieve higher referral rates, lower employee turnover, and double employee engagement levels. It just goes to show that being intentional about culture delivers bottom-line results.”
“It’s an honor to be named to the Top Workplaces list seven years in a row,” said Stephen Curry, Chairman and CEO of Gateway. “Gateway First Bank has a remarkable culture because we have terrific people. Our values center on teamwork, on-time execution and making a difference for our customers. In the last year, we have undergone a transformation to a bank, resulting in tremendous growth for the organization. All of these factors have served to expand our passion for strengthening families through homeownership to include their entire financial health.”
