BOSTON — Newsweek has named Berkshire Bank one of America’s Greatest Workplaces 2024. This is the second consecutive year Berkshire has been recognized for its industry-leading company culture, having been honored as one of America’s Best Midsize Employers by Forbes in 2023.

America’s Greatest Workplaces 2024 honorees were selected based on an independent study that included more than 1.5 million company reviews and 250,000 interviews on topics like culture, career progression, training and senior management.

“Berkshire bankers work tirelessly every day to help our clients and communities thrive,” CEO Nitin Mhatre said. “These recognitions would not be possible without their boundless passion and energy. It is their dedication to our clients and commitment to our strategy that brings us together and truly sets us apart.”

Berkshire is committed to being a workplace of choice and creating an environment where all employees can reach their full potential by offering programs that include paid time off to volunteer, an employee assistance fund, rewards and recognition and professional development. This has contributed to increased levels of employee engagement in each of the past three years along with a growing list of accolades, including Newsweek naming the bank one of the Most Trustworthy Companies in America and one of America’s Best Regional Banks, and TIME honoring the bank as one of America’s Best Mid-Size Companies.
