CWB recognized as one of 50 Best Workplaces in Canada

CWB Financial Group (CWB) is thrilled to be recognized as one of this year’s Best Workplaces™ in Canada, placing 41 out of 400 participating organizations headquartered in Canada in its first year in the running. CWB is committed to continuing to build a culture where people come first, and where collaborative spirit and embracing change are rewarded. Employees are empowered to take ownership, share their views and contribute to a caring, inclusive environment that strives to be the best full-service bank for business owners in Canada.

“I am so proud to share this achievement with CWB’s more than 2,000 employees across Canada, especially in light of the resilience and proactive support our teams have shown thousands of clients over the past few weeks,” said Chris Fowler, CWB’s President & CEO. “CWB is a place where our people make a difference every day. I continuously see the energy, passion and drive that our people bring to help our clients and one other. For me, it’s how CWB’s people work together that defines us as a Great Place to Work®.”

The 2020 Best Workplaces™ in Canada list is compiled by the Great Place to Work® Institute.  The competition process is based on two criteria: two-thirds of the total score comes from confidential employee survey results and the remaining one-third comes from an in-depth review of the organization’s culture. This offers a rigorous representation of the organization from an employee perspective, and an overall portrait of the workplace culture. Together, they provide crucial data relative to five trust-building dimensions: credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie.

More than 80,000 employees participated in the annual Trust Index Survey© representing more than 400 companies and over 300,000 employees.
