Firm makes nationally ranked list for the seventh time
NASHVILLE, Tenn., October 24, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pinnacle Financial Partners has once again been selected as one of the 2024 Fortune Best Workplaces for Women. This is the firm’s seventh time being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at No.8. Pinnacle previously earned this distinction in 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2018 and 2017.
"I am deeply honored that our firm has been recognized as one of the top workplaces for women," said Summer Yeiser Pinnacle’s director of associate and client experience. "This award reflects our ongoing commitment to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive, contribute and lead. Diverse perspectives strengthen our culture and empower everyone across the organization."
To determine the Best Workplaces for Women, Great Place To Work analyzed the survey responses of nearly 600,000 women who work for Great Place To Work Certified™ companies that were eligible for the list. To be considered, a company must employ at least 50 women, have at least 20 percent of non-executive managers who are women and at least one senior executive who’s a woman.
"This consistent recognition underscores our unwavering commitment to creating an inclusive and equitable workplace where women can thrive," said Terry Turner, Pinnacle’s president and CEO. "We believe diversity in leadership and across all levels of the organization is not just the right thing to do but also a critical driver of our success."
The Best Workplaces for Women list is highly competitive. Survey responses reflect a comprehensive picture of the workplace experience. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for women regardless of job role, race, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier. Great Place To Work analyzed the gender balance of each workplace compared with Bureau of Labor Statistics industry data. Companies were also assessed on how representation changes as women rise from front-line positions to the board of directors.
Pinnacle Financial Partners provides a full range of banking, investment, trust, mortgage and insurance products and services designed for businesses and their owners and individuals interested in a comprehensive relationship with their financial institution. The firm is the No. 1 bank in the Nashville-Murfreesboro-Franklin MSA, according to 2024 deposit data from the FDIC. Pinnacle is No. 11 on FORTUNE magazine’s 2024 list of 100 Best Companies to Work For® in the U.S., its eighth consecutive appearance and was recognized by American Banker as one of America’s Best Banks to Work For 11 years in a row and No. 1 among banks with more than $10 billion in assets in 2023.
Pinnacle Bank owns a 49 percent interest in Bankers Healthcare Group (BHG), which provides innovative, hassle-free financial solutions to healthcare practitioners and other professionals. Great Place to Work and FORTUNE ranked BHG No. 4 on its 2021 list of Best Workplaces in New York State in the small/medium business category.
