"We believe creating an environment where our team members can thrive is a large part of our success. Being recognized as a great place for great people to work validates that we're building a culture that empowers our team to do their best work," said CEO and Chairman Lynn Harton.
United is a bank that is focused on maintaining its people-first culture. This year, United revamped and expanded its Power of U council – an initiative that encourages open communication and collaboration between management and employees. The council helps address the diverse needs and aspirations of United's workforce while driving employee engagement, accountability and retention. Additionally, the bank offers benefits such as sick time donation, paid time off to volunteer at an organization of an employees' choosing and an internal assistance fund that supports teammates who may need extra help. Most recently, this fund was activated when more than a dozen employees were devastated by Hurricane Helene.
"Our employees' compassion and commitment to each other is what set us apart," said Chief Human Resources Officer Holly Berry. "Our culture of caring was front-and-center recently in the wake of Hurricane Helene and I have never been more proud to be part of a team that took care of each other."
United's internal recognition platform, URock, allows teammates to recognize each other with a note of encouragement that goes to both the employee and their manager. Employees enjoy the perk of an extra 'holiyay' to give teammates time off to celebrate a holiday or personal event that is special to them.
