"We're very proud to be named one of American Banker's 2014 Best Banks to Work For," said Daniel P. Myers, president and CEO of Bridge Bank. "Since our founding in 2001, we have prioritized and fostered an employee-driven client service culture. Bridge Bank is defined by the different breed of banker we employ here. This recognition is, in large part, due to our employees themselves, who continually provide their ideas and feedback to ensure that our bank maintains a high level of workplace satisfaction and a healthy work and life balance," he added.
"We take great care to ensure that we're attracting the best and brightest talent in the marketplace," said Russ Elliot, senior vice president and human resources director at Bridge Bank. "It's our people who make the Bridge Bank experience so valuable to our clients, and who help create a challenging and rewarding working environment deserving of this award," Elliot added. In 2013, Bridge Bank was recognized as a Top Workplace in the Bay Area by the Bay Area News Group.
Banks are ranked based on responses to anonymous employee surveys, which assess various areas of the workplace, including leadership and planning, corporate culture and communication as well as overall engagement.
