If you were asked to describe Maine’s credit union system in a few words, the terms member-focused, community-oriented, and financial navigator probably would be top-of-mind. One characteristic that should not be overlooked is the collaborative and positive workplace environment credit unions offer their employees. You don’t have to take just our word for it. This year, 16 credit unions were included in the 2024 Best Places to Work in Maine list. A total of 134 businesses of various sizes from across the state have been recognized with this prestigious honor.
According to Mainebiz, “the competitive selection of the list, now in its 19th year, was made by the Maine State Council of the Society for Human Resource Management, Best Companies Group, and Minneapolis-based BridgeTower Media. The winners were selected according to two criteria: an evaluation of each nominee’s workplace policies, practices and demographics, worth approximately 25% of the evaluation score; and an employee survey, which made up 75% of the score. ”
