Best Medium Workplaces

Fortune magazine and Great Place to Work^® have selected First American Equipment Finance as one of the 2024 Best Medium Workplaces (under 1,000 FTE). This is First American’s ninth time being named to this prestigious list, this year coming in at #16. Earning a spot means that First American is one of the best companies to work for in the country. 

To determine the Best Medium Workplaces^™ list, Great Place to Work^® analyzed the survey responses of over 213,000 employees from Great Place To Work Certified^™ companies with 100 to 999 U.S. employees. In that survey, 98% of colleagues at First American said it is a great place to work, compared to 57% of employees at a typical U.S.-based company.

The Best Medium Workplaces award is highly competitive. Great Place To Work^® determines its lists using its proprietary For All^™ methodology to evaluate and certify thousands of organizations in America’s largest ongoing annual workforce study, based on over 1.3 million survey responses and data from companies representing more than 8.2 million employees this year alone. Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for employees regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifier.

“We are honored to again be recognized for our outstanding workplace culture,” said CEO, Alan Sikora. “Our colleagues are genuine, inclusive, and collaborative – creating an environment where high performers can flourish both personally and professionally.”

First American’s vision is to become the best company to work for, and the best company to work with. Earlier this year, Energage named First American the #1 Top Midsize Workplace in Rochester (125-399 FTE) and #9 on the Top Workplaces USA list (150-499 FTE). Best Companies Group named First American as the #1 Best Company to Work for in New York (250+ FTE). First American was also recognized on the 2024 PEOPLE^® Companies that Care list. In 2024, Fortune magazine and Great Place to Work^® ranked First American as a Best Workplace in NY^™ and a Best Workplace for Millennials^™, and in 2023, as a Best Workplace in Financial Services and Insurance^™.
