(LAKE JACKSON, TX) — TDECU has been recognized as one of Houston’s Top Workplaces for 2012 by the Houston Chronicle, ranking as one of the area’s Top 35 large employers (those with 500 or more employees).
The award recognizes the credit union’s strength of leadership, its organizational health and employee satisfaction in the areas of work-life balance, job growth and advancement opportunities and benefits and pay. It also takes into consideration employee pride and their willingness to go above and beyond in their job performance. This information was obtained through a survey in which more than 87 percent of TDECU employees participated in. The average response rate for other Houston companies the size of TDECU is 60 percent. This high level of participation is indicative of the dedication of TDECU employees to the credit union and its Member-Owners.
“We are proud to be recognized by our employees as one of the Top Workplaces in Houston. We know our employees are a critical part of our success and the reason why so many Texans choose TDECU as their credit union,” said Stephanie Sherrodd, TDECU President and CEO. “Our core purpose is to improve lives, both for our employees and members.”
Earlier this year, TDECU was recognized by the Victoria Advocate and ranked among the Top 5 employers in the area in the categories of Best Place to Work, Best Lender and Best Customer Service.
