Oakworth Capital Bank remains a top-ranked “Best Bank to Work For” in the U.S.

Oakworth has been ranked among the best banks for eight years

Oakworth Capital Bank celebrates another year recognized among the nation’s “Best Bank to Work For” by American Banker, based on survey results from associates across participating financial organizations.

Oakworth has consistently maintained a high associate retention rate. When you combine this achievement with associate feedback that places the bank as a best place to work among industry peers, it’s a unique recognition that sets the organization apart.

The program was launched in 2013 by American Banker and Best Companies Group to identify, recognize and honor U.S. banks for outstanding associate satisfaction. Oakworth has proudly been ranked among the best banks for eight years, holding the top spot for six of those and ranking #2 this year.

“This ranking directly reflects an environment that our associates create by consistently leading with our core values,” said Scott Reed, chairman and CEO of Oakworth. “Receiving national recognition, year after year, as a leading workplace in the financial industry is a tremendous accomplishment.”
