Jennings, LA – JD Bank is pleased to announce it has been named one of the 2025 Best Banks to Work For. American Banker has partnered with Best Companies Group to identify banks that excel at creating
positive and supportive workplaces for employees.
This year 90 banks earned a spot in the ranking of 2025 Best Banks to Work For, based on an anonymous employee survey and a thorough review of the benefits and perks offered. The full list of the 2025 2025 Best Banks to Work For will be featured at www.americanbanker.com.
“The banks recognized as Best Banks to Work For are institutions employees want to join and stay,” said Chana Schoenberger, editor-in-chief of American Banker. “They understand how to give workers reasons to find purpose in their jobs.”
On the 2025 list, JD Bank was ranked No. 78. The survey and awards program is designed to identify and honor banks with the best cultures for helping employees thrive.
“There is no greater honor than one that comes from our own team. This recognition speaks to the
culture we’re building together — one where people feel supported, valued, and inspired to do meaningful work for our customers and communities,” said Paul E. Brummett, II, CEO of JD Bank.
Determining the 2025 Best Banks to Work For involved a two-step process. The first consisted of evaluating each participating bank’s workplace policies, practices, and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second consisted of employee surveys aimed at assessing the experiences and attitudes of individual employees with respect to their workplace. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores
determined the final ranking.
To be considered for participation, banks had to have at least 50 employees working in the U.S. and
been in business for a minimum of one year. Best Companies Group managed the registration and
survey process and also analyzed the data to determine the final ranking.
