Pinnacle is the Triad's No. 1 Best Place to Work for Sixth Consecutive Year

Pinnacle Financial Partners is once again the No. 1 Best Place to Work in the Triad region of North Carolina representing Greensboro, Winston-Salem and High Point. The Triad Business Journal named Pinnacle to the No.1 spot in the extra-large companies category (greater than 300 associates) for its annual competition to find the region’s top workplaces. This is the sixth year in a row Pinnacle has earned a spot on the list and one of many local workplace awards the firm has won in North Carolina.

“From the start, our company was designed to give associates the freedom to excel.” Said David Allen, Pinnacle’s regional chairman for Central North Carolina. “By combining this approach with clear company-wide goals and a culture that prioritizes human connection, we’ve created an unbeatable environment where people love their work.”

Associates in the Triad share their experiences on the company’s annual anonymous work environment survey. Comments from the 2024 survey included:

“Pinnacle is the best place I have ever worked. I feel like the firm’s leadership truly cares about associates, and they strive to include all of us in the success of this firm”

“I feel valued, seen and like I make a difference not just with my fellow associates but with the clients as well. I have more than enough opportunity to grow and the best support to make that happen from my team and leader”

“Pinnacle is a very inclusive organization. Leadership is very transparent with associates, and everyone is a shareholder from the date of hiring. This creates an environment where everyone is working together for a common goal.”

The Best Places to Work competition is based on third-party research from Quantum Workplace, a leading employee engagement firm. They send anonymous surveys to employees with closed and open-ended questions on culture, and other criteria. Average scores from these surveys determine the final rankings and awards.
