Summit Credit Union again one of Madison’s Top Workplaces
Recognized in Wisconsin State Journal’s annual list of best employers for 3rd consecutive year
MADISON, WI (March 24, 2022) — Summit Credit Union, a member-owned financial cooperative, has been named a Top Workplace in the Madison area by the Wisconsin State Journal. The annual list honors companies demonstrating excellence in employee engagement and a strong company culture.
“This recognition means a lot because it comes straight from our employees,” said Summit CEO & President Kim Sponem. “At Summit, we work together to constantly improve our culture of collaboration, celebration and creativity.”
Nominated organizations were judged using a company-wide survey measuring employee engagement. Survey categories include communication and cooperation, development opportunities, leadership and more.
Survey responses were collected by Energage, an independent company specializing in the measurement of employee engagement and analysis of company culture. The nominated organizations with the highest aggregate levels of engagement were categorized by size and named to the Top Workplaces list.

Summit is also a three-time winner of the Association for Talent Development’s BEST award, a global award recognizing companies that demonstrate a culture of learning and development. Summit employees enjoy paid volunteer hours, paid time off on birthdays, student loan payback and a floating day off to celebrate an ethnic or religious holiday of their choice.
