National certification honors RMF as a standout employer with an exceptional workplace culture

BLOOMFIELD, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / February 22, 2022 / Reverse Mortgage Funding LLC (RMF) announces it is now Certified™ by Great Place to Work®. The prestigious certification is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at the company. At RMF, 96% of employees said it's a great place to work, compared to 59% of employees at a typical U.S.-based 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 RMF is one of the best companies to work for in the country."

"RMF is honored to be recognized as one of the nation's leading high-performing, people-first companies with the Great Place to Work-Certified™ designation," said David Peskin, President of RMF. "We are proud to cultivate an environment where all employees are valued and set up for success. Our incredible team of professionals are dedicated to creating a strong workplace culture where everyone is recognized for their contributions."

In 2020, RMF became a fully-remote company - one of the first in the reverse mortgage industry. As part of this transition to virtual work, RMF has invested heavily in promoting greater efficiency, engagement and community among its workforce. The company launched an employee experience intranet site that provides opportunities for fostering culture through sharing news, posting promotions and sending birthday and work anniversary wishes. This site is key to offering the human touch aspect that was once more easily accessible in person. Additionally, RMF has invested in enhancing its employee learning and development platforms, including an internal podcast, webinars, virtual and in-person trainings and video learning.

"96% of employees said that when you join RMF, you are made to feel welcome. Beginning at onboarding, we strive to provide opportunities for employee recognition, team building and career development. We know that cultivating an exceptional workplace culture is a win for the employee, the company and the customer. At RMF, strong employee experiences improve the overall customer experience," added Peskin.

As a result, RMF continues to lead the reverse mortgage industry in talent recruitment and retention. 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.
