LIVE OAKS, TX (October 7, 2024) — Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union has been awarded the No. 1 spot in “Top Workplaces,” a program sponsored by the San Antonio Express-News. The program bases its awards on employee feedback collected by Energage, a third-party survey platform seeking honest feedback and engagement. The survey is conducted and is founded on comprehensive research and industry benchmarks, leveraging data from millions of employees across thousands of organizations over the past 18 years.
“We have been in this program year over year, and being recognized as No. 1 is a testament to the culture and values our employees bring to the credit union daily,” RBFCU President/CEO Mark Sekula said. “We talk about our mission being to improve our members’ economic well-being and quality of life, and our employees are a key component to upholding that mission. They exemplify our ‘people helping people’ mentality.”
RBFCU’s commitment to its values and mission resonates with its members and the employees that serve them, as this is the credit union’s 13th consecutive year being listed in Top Workplaces.
The credit union offers several benefits for the 2,360-person staff that make RBFCU a top competitor in this program. For example, employees have a generous 401(k) match, paid time off accruals, and medical, vision and dental benefits from the first day of employment. This includes a notable health and wellness benefit: a yearly biometric screening.
“It’s important for employees to know that work life balance and maintaining their health is important to us, and we have found that the biometric screening helps employees.” said Ashley Ward, RBFCU Senior Vice President-Human Resources. “Seeing this award lets me know that we’re always moving in the right direction. We take care of each other, and winning ‘Top Workplaces’ shows everyone that.” Staff is paid for the time it takes to get the assessment, and they receive a discount on their medical premiums for full program participation. RBFCU also initiates several employee engagement events, like Family Fun Days in all operational markets, holiday gift boxes and a holiday feast.
RBFCU is no stranger to having its work culture celebrated. In 2024, it received “Best Places to Work” awards from Business Journal publications in Austin, Dallas and San Antonio, adding to its long history of recognition in those programs as well.
Established in 1952, Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union is a full-service financial cooperative whose mission is to improve members’ economic well-being and quality of life. With assets exceeding $17.7 billion, RBFCU serves more than 1 million members at 62 branches throughout Texas, and online at rbfcu.org and the RBFCU Mobile® app.
