MADISON, Wis.–Summit Credit Union has been named a Top Workplace in the Madison area by the Wisconsin State Journal.
The annual list honors companies demonstrating excellence in employee engagement and a strong company culture.
“This recognition means a lot because it comes straight from our employees,” said Summit CEO & President Kim Sponem. “At Summit, we work together to constantly improve our culture of collaboration, celebration and creativity.”
Nominated organizations were judged using a company-wide survey measuring employee engagement. Survey categories include communication and cooperation, development opportunities, leadership and more.
