"When people are deciding what company to work for, they often consider elements such as compensation, location, how well the job matches their current skill set or goals and the company's reputation and culture. But the three primary factors are typically remote or hybrid schedules, generous benefits and tangible recognition of performance."

"The 33 companies on American Banker's 2026 Best Fintechs to Work in Fintech list have made an effort to provide generous benefits and work-from-home flexibility, as well as more fun perks from complimentary food for in-office days to half-day Summer Fridays to various company-wide parties and outings."

"As large corporate workplaces are making headlines for continuing to enact return-to-office policies and starting to cut back on benefits such as family leave and paid time off, firms that made this list are doing the opposite."

"There's a shared pride in building an all-in-one platform that simplifies advisors' lives, powered by a team that genuinely cares about doing things right," the company stated.
