WebBank, a Best-in-Class national issuer of consumer and small business credit products through Strategic Partner platforms, has been named one of the 2023 Best Places to Work in Financial Technology. The awards program was created in 2017 and is a project of Arizent and Best Companies Group.

This annual survey and awards program is designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in the financial technology industry. Companies recognized on this year’s list operate in and serve businesses and consumers in a wide range of financial services including banking and mortgages, insurance, payments and financial advisory.

WebBank is one of 50 companies that received this award and articles about all award winners appear in American Banker, National Mortgage News, PaymentsSource, Financial Planning and Digital Insurance.

“WebBank is delighted to be selected as one of the 2023 Best Places to Work in Financial Technology,” said Shannon Hutchings, SVP, People and Brand at WebBank. “Employees at WebBank work diligently to foster an environment of caring, support for each other and teamwork and this award is a testament to our team’s focus on maintaining an award-winning culture.”

“Some of the most intriguing technology advances in financial services are developed within fintech firms that partner or compete with banks,” said Penny Crosman, executive editor, technology at American Banker. “Best Places to Work in Financial Technology provides a closer look at some of these companies and the culture and benefits that help them attract top talent.”

To be considered for participation, companies must provide technology products, services or solutions that enable the delivery of financial services. Companies must also have been in business for at least one full year and employ at least 15 people in the U.S.

Companies from across the United States entered a two-part survey process to determine Arizent’s Best Places to Work in Financial Technology. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process, analyzed the data and determined the final ranking.
