Firm bags the award for the second consecutive year
Fairway Independent Mortgage was announced as the national winner of the 2022 Top Workplaces USA award issued by Energage, a company that gives credible employer recognition.
This is the second consecutive year the lender has topped the list for companies with more than 2,500 employees. Award recipients were chosen based solely on employee feedback gathered through an anonymous survey distributed by Energage. The survey measures several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection.
“We are beyond humbled to be recognized as the best place to work for the second year in a row,” said Steve Jacobson, founder and CEO of Fairway Independent Mortgage. “We value our employees greatly at Fairway, so we provide them with a supportive culture and work environment where they can thrive and grow their careers. We see culture as a day-to-day discipline. We take nothing for granted as we never know what is around the corner.”

“During this very challenging time, Top Workplaces has proven to be a beacon of light for organizations, as well as a sign of resiliency and strong business performance,” said Energage CEO Eric Rubino. “When you give your employees a voice, you come together to navigate challenges and shape your path forward.
