Employees say:"Working at Synchrony has been an incredible experience with amazing people and benefits. The company truly values us and strives to create a supportive workplace - from flexibility to benefits that support people's whole selves (mental and physical wellbeing, caregiving and family support) - setting a high standard for others to follow. The culture at Synchrony is real - leadership takes a genuine interest in hearing and responding to our feedback. Synchrony leaders take the time to celebrate, honor and uplift each other, which is so important during times of uncertainty. I'm so grateful to be part of the team."

Synchrony Financial

Employees say:"Amex has a lot of heart. Good leadership and good behaviors are exemplified every day. Everyone takes pride in their work and strives to do right by the customer every step of the way. Even in challenging moments, I know I have a safe and healthy environment to lean on and a team of colleagues who I can trust. I did not think I would stay at one company for so long, but Amex continues to reinvent itself in the market, celebrate achievements, and extend opportunities that keep me engaged intellectually and encourage me to grow as a leader. Our CEO is as authentic as it gets, and I can trust his decisions and perspective as it relates to the customer, our colleagues, and the business."

American Express

Employees say:"Pinnacle is an extremely transparent, caring and empowering culture. It starts at the Executive Team. This same culture is exhibited firm wide with all associates in a sincere manner. Associates are expected to be transparent about processes, solutions, products, other associates performance, etc. This fosters trust throughout the organization and continued dedication to enhancing our brand at all times. The culture committees in each market do not include management. This is another great example of how our culture is naturally executed. Associates routinely donate unused PTO hours to those facing personal challenges which to me sums up what makes us special."

Pinnacle Financial Partners

Employees say:"When it comes to supporting their employees, their actions are louder than their words. There is a true Mission above the financial performance. Leadership promotes skip level meetings and in-company networking to help employees build their brand. By far, Fannie Mae is the most enjoyable, fulfilling place to work that I have experienced in my 25+ years in the mortgage industry."

Fannie Mae

Employees say:"The culture and the people are the best I have experienced in my career. There is a level of care for each other and commitment to the work we do for clients that is unique. I feel supported personally and professionally by my peers and management. I have been given many opportunities to contribute outside of my role and pursue growth."

Baird

Employees say:"Progressive has always encouraged me to bring myself to work - which stood out to me over 20 years ago when I started and remains true today. The company truly embraces individuality of thought and encourages healthy disagreement. This creates a culture where everyone feels their opinion matters and is provided a seat at the table."

Progressive

Employees say:"Our culture of volunteerism is unique. I was asked to go to a field-lead-training to develop my presentation and leadership skills so that I would be a better leader as my career progresses. From the people running this development program to those participating it was all volunteer, but all very high quality. I feel that I am a better leader and more capable in my job because others took time out of their business to help me."

Jones Financial (Edward Jones)

Employees say:"The people are genuinely kind and caring people who are committed to doing the best and right thing for each other and our customers. The company also provides upskilling training and encourages associates to take roles in different areas of the company to grow and learn new skills. Many people here have pivoted into roles that are brand new to their experience (example: from a business role into marketing or from communications into a business role) and have long and satisfying careers here because of that opportunity."

Nationwide

Employees say:"I feel that MetLife is the best place to work I ever had for my almost 30 year carrier. First it's great people - thoughtful, encouraging, supportive. I feel that the company always wants to do the right things. I love the fact that I am learning every day of my work. I feel safe and valued. I have exceptional managers."

MetLife

Employees say:"The drive to continually improve is so unique. I have worked at this company for 9 years and I will think frequently that it can't possibly get any better, yet it always does. From special recognition (unburied life, awards, shout outs) to passion for our dealers (training, reporting, outreach) and commitment to making our team members' and customers' lives the best they can be. Our entire leadership team works with a passion and moral compass that is second to none."

Credit Acceptance

Employees say:"Most companies will say that people are their greatest asset. Capital One actually believes it and acts accordingly. Management pushes for employees to take time off to recharge. They actively seek to develop us and our careers. The company wants to know how we employees can be further enabled and empowered to act. Capital One truly gives people the space to be themselves. The employees are generally smart, capable, fun, caring, and collaborative. If you have a question or problem, just post it to a Slack channel, and you'll have people jumping in to help. After five years here, I continue to be astounded by my fellow employees."

Capital One Financial

Employees say:"There is something very unique in how management has built a culture here where everyone feels they have a voice, and not only is their voice is heard, but actions are taken because of their suggestions/comments. This is seriously the best job I've ever had."

OneDigital

Employees say:"This is the only company that I have worked for that actively seeks input from all employees to better improve processes. And they don't just say that they welcome the input, they created a means and method of receiving input/suggestions, as well as routines to evaluate those suggestions and implement them. If you submit a suggestion, you are provided with status updates as to the decision of implementation and if approved, you continue to receive updates about the progress of said implementation. They mean what they say when they say that they trust the team."

Bank of America

Employees say:"Ally is a uniquely great place to work because of its incredible workplace culture, where collaboration and innovation thrive.

I also feel Mastercard treats everyone as humans, so we can make mistakes, be casual, be honest, I never get nervous about having a bad day or a presentation. My time at Mastercard has been some of the happiest in my entire career."

Mastercard

Employees say:"Management truly cares about everyone and they frequently let us know how much we are appreciated. This is especially true at the division level. There's a very collaborative spirit here. People want to help each other out and they want to continually make things better. The company also provides ample resources for people to learn and grow in their careers if they are willing to put in the effort."

First American Financial

Employees say:"New American Funding is by far the best company to work for and best mortgage company I have ever worked for. Our owners and President of the company are beyond amazing and very supportive. They have created a family-style culture that starts at the top and flows down to the rest of the company. I cannot imagine working anywhere else and feel blessed by the opportunity I have been given to work alongside so many incredible, talented and team oriented people. Truly the best of the best and the company just keeps getting better and better."

New American Funding

Employees say:"Leadership makes it evident every day that not only are members the mission, but also the employees.

USI is constantly working to make things better and efficient for employees at every level. I've never worked for a company that puts so much towards making life better for non-executive employees. It truly makes a difference. They have also adjusted extremely well and smart to the post-Covid workforce. There are in-office, hybrid and remote options, and they comingle extremely well. Video calling and meetings are used everyday so that no remote employees are left out."

USI Insurance Services

Employees say:"Everyone at my company is a teammate, no matter their title, and teammates help each other and recognize each other for the work each of us does.

It is a great way to thank someone or let them know their good work is being recognized."

To produce the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://fortune.com/ranking/best-workplaces-financial-services-insurance/2025/">Fortune Best Workplaces in Financial Services &amp; Insurance</a>, Fortune partnered with the people analytics firm <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.greatplacetowork.com/">Great Place To Work®</a>. Great Place To Work has been surveying employees around the world about their workplace experiences for 30 years. Great Place To Work has developed a set of themes and metrics that not only reveal whether employees feel their workplace is great, but also predict retention, agility, and overall business success. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Using their proprietary Trust Index™ survey, Great Place To Work measures the core of what they know creates great workplaces — key behaviors that drive trust in management, connection with colleagues, and loyalty to the company. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The survey enables employees to share confidential quantitative and qualitative feedback about their organization’s culture by responding to 60 statements on a five-point scale and answering two open-ended questions. &nbsp;&nbsp;Employees tell Great Place To Work whether or not leaders are accessible, if they communicate honestly and clearly, and if their actions match their words. Employees tell if they feel respected as individuals, if they receive support for their well-being and personal development, and if they have opportunities to contribute, and appreciation for their work. They tell whether they believe their company is fair related to pay, profits, promotions, recognition, favoritism, and opportunities for growth. They tell if they are proud of their work, their team, and their company, if they feel they make a difference, and if their work is meaningful. And they tell if they enjoy the people they work with, if they feel cared for, and if they can be themselves. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;List rankings are based on this employee feedback, which is analyzed to determine the extent to which this experience is shared by the full workforce. Great Place To Work measures the differences in survey responses across demographic groups and roles within each organization to assess both the quality and consistency of the employee experience. Statements are weighted according to their relevance in describing the most important aspects of an equitable workplace. &nbsp;&nbsp;The best companies create great work experiences not just for full-time managers, but also for their part-time employees on the front lines, for those who’ve just joined and those who’ve spent their whole career there, for every race and ethnicity, gender, neurotype, or other demographic in the organization Great Place To Work looks at it all. Companies with the broadest set of employees who report positive workplace experience receive the highest rankings on lists.&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to analyze employee feedback in context, Great Place To Work collects information from each company including their industry, revenue, size, and employee demographics. They identify the organizations that offer the most generous, caring and innovative cultures reflecting a genuine commitment to meet the diversity of their people’s needs inside and outside the workplace as validated by what employees themselves report in survey results.&nbsp;&nbsp;Because employee feedback drives these rankings, surveys must meet strict requirements for how they are distributed and the percentage of employees who respond to ensure they accurately represent honest feedback from the company’s full population. To be eligible for the Fortune Best Workplaces in Financial Services &amp; Insurance list, companies must be Great Place To Work Certified™, have 10 or more employees in the U.S., and be in the financial services &amp; insurance industry. Companies with 10 to 999 people are considered for the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://fortune.com/ranking/best-small-workplaces-financial-services-insurance/2025/">small and medium category</a>; companies with 1,000 employees or more are considered for the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://fortune.com/ranking/best-workplaces-financial-services-insurance/2025/">large category</a>.
