The PURE Group, which includes Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange (PURE), the policyholder-owned property and casualty insurer designed for high net worth individuals and families, was named one of the 2020 Best Workplaces in Financial Services & Insurance by Great Place to Work and Fortune. The PURE Group is 12th on the list, rising from the 24th place in 2019. The PURE Group is honored to be included on this list for the fifth consecutive year.

To determine the rankings, Great Place to Work® analyzed confidential survey feedback representing nearly 782,000 employees working in the financial services and insurance industry in the United States. Great Place to Work, a global people analytics and consulting firm, evaluated more than 60 elements of team members’ experience on the job. These included the extent to which employees trust leaders, the respect with which people are treated, the fairness of workplace decisions, and how much camaraderie there is among the team. Rankings are based on employees’ feedback and reward companies who best include all employees, no matter who they are or what they do for the organization.

“The PURE Group is committed to fostering a positive and inclusive environment that allows our employees to think creatively, work collaboratively and approach work with passion to better serve our unique membership,” said Katherine Richardson, Chief Human Resources Officer of the PURE Group. “We are humbled by our continued recognition as one of the best places to work in the industry and our dedication to supporting all our employees—both inside and outside of the workplace.”

The company engages its employees with initiatives such as in-office meditation, student loan repayment assistance, unlimited PTO, and a phase-back program for those returning from maternity leave. Through additional mentorship programs and a "Passion Course" program for employees to receive outside certifications in areas such as self-defense, PURE cultivates a workplace that promotes success in both the professional and personal spheres.

“The organizations on this year’s list provide their employees great experiences in a high-pressure industry undergoing a lot of change,” said Great Place to Work CEO Michael C. Bush. “The winners on this list are unique for how they tap into the unique experiences and insights of their employees from all backgrounds, and throughout the organization, to serve customers and communities. These companies are creating a workplace where their people feel valued and connected to a purpose beyond making money.”
