National Institutes of Health Federal Credit Union Recognized By American Banker as a Best Credit Union To Work For

The National Institutes of Health Federal Credit Union (NIHFCU) was recently named by American Banker as one of the nation’s top credit unions to work for in 2022.

Ranked 37th out of the 70 credit unions that made the list, winners were selected through two different surveys with the help of Best Companies Group. The first examined employee satisfaction and covered eight areas, including leadership and planning, corporate culture and communication, and overall engagement. Employees at the winning institutions, like NIHFCU, reported a better work-life balance, more effective corporate communication, and more authority to make decisions.

The second survey evaluated the benefits and policies of each credit union, ranging from monetary perks and work atmosphere, to social gatherings and professional development opportunities. NIHFCU was recognized for its generous “spot bonuses” that quickly award staff for contributions that exceed performance expectations, and free ID theft protection with the credit union’s medical insurance plan or checking account.

Rick Wieczorek, NIHFCU’s President & CEO stated, “I am very proud of our dedicated employees and thrilled they received this well-deserved recognition because our success and ability to deliver an exceptional member experience, or what we call “Banking with Heart,” would not be possible without them!”
