First Internet Bank Earns Recognition as an Employer of Choice

First Internet Bank today announced it has again been named one of the “Best Places to Work in Indiana” by an initiative dedicated to identifying and recognizing the best employers in the state. First Internet Bank is one of 21 companies recognized in the medium-sized (75-249 employees) company category.

Companies from across the state completed a two-part process to be considered for the award. The first step, worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation, included an evaluation of the company’s workplace policies, practices, benefits and demographics. The remaining portion of the assessment was driven by an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This is the eleventh year for the Best Places to Work in Indiana program.

“First Internet Bank is honored to be recognized as an employer of choice,” said David Becker, President and CEO. “We value the contributions of every employee, and knowing that our selection was largely based on their candid feedback is especially significant.”

“The companies selected represent some of our most outstanding Hoosier employers,” said Indiana Chamber President Kevin Brinegar. “They embrace the idea that a positive work culture that includes respect, communication, opportunity and being part of a team not only makes it a place in which employees want to work, but also fuels the success of the company.”

First Internet Bank was previously on the statewide list in 2013. The Bank has also earned local recognition as a “Top Workplace” by The Indianapolis Star and national honors as a “Best Bank to Work For” by American Banker.
