Centier Bank has been ranked as the Best Bank to Work For in Indiana by American Banker’s 2025 Best Banks to Work For list.
Centier Bank also ranked #5 nationally on the list of the top 90 banks, up from #11 in 2024.
American Banker partners with Best Companies Group to identify banks that excel at creating positive and supportive workplaces for employees. This year, 90 banks earned a spot in the ranking of American Banker’s 13th annual Best Banks to Work For, based on an anonymous employee survey and a review of the benefits and perks offered.
“This year, which marks our 130th anniversary – and throughout our history – we have worked very hard to establish a servant-heart culture of caring where we put people first in a hospitality environment,” said Michael Schrage, Centier Bank CEO and chairman of the board, in a press release. “Being recognized again by American Banker as the Best Bank to Work For in Indiana and having our national ranking increase from #11 to #5 validates our purpose, vision, mission and values.”
Determining the Best Banks to Work For involved a two-step process. The first consisted of evaluating each participating bank’s workplace policies, practices and demographics. The second consisted of employee surveys aimed at assessing the experiences and attitudes of individual employees with respect to their workplace. The combined scores determined the final ranking.
“Taking care of people, including our own associates, has always been at the forefront of everything we do,” Chrisanne Christ, senior partner in human resource development, said. “Because we employ the best, servant-heart driven associates, we as a company do all we can to invest and support them with benefits and offerings that they have told us are important to them.”
