Pinnacle Is the No. 6 Best Workplace for Women in the Nation, Continues Extensive Workplace Award Streak<\/b><\/p>\n

Firm has earned 16 honors in 12 months, nationally and in nearly every market served<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

NASHVILLE, Tenn.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nPinnacle Financial Partners remains one of the nation\u2019s Best Large Workplaces for Women<\/a>, earning the No. 6 spot on the latest list from FORTUNE magazine and Great Place to Work\u00ae. The firm ranks among the best in the nation for the way women associates view their experience in terms of fairness and equity. This is Pinnacle\u2019s fourth appearance on the list, having previously earned this distinction in 2020, 2018 and 2017.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cFor the last 21 years we have been focused on our vision to be the best place to work and our mission to enrich all associates personally, professionally and financially,\u201d said Sarae Janes Lewis, Pinnacle\u2019s director of associate and client experience. \u201cTwo-thirds of our associates are women, and they make up more than half of our managers. We can fulfill our vision only by creating the best place to work for all and enriching our associates with fairness across the board, no matter who they are.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Best Workplaces for Women award is based on analysis of survey responses from more than 5.6 million U.S. employees. In that survey, 98 percent of Pinnacle\u2019s female employees said it\u2019s a great place to work.\n<\/p>\n

\nJanes Lewis continued, \u201cWe\u2019ve made substantive changes to our approach to equity and inclusion to keep pace with a changing world, but what hasn\u2019t changed are our values. They underpin every decision we make. Fairness, partnership and balance, in particular, have driven much of our work for associates since the very beginning.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nAt the end of 2020, Pinnacle expanded its leadership team to include 20 additional women and also made commitments to ensure greater diversity in leadership positions going forward. At least 50 percent of all participants in a new leadership development program will represent diverse gender, racial, ethnic and other backgrounds.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Best Workplace for Women ranking is the latest in a long run of such honors. In the last 12 months, Pinnacle has earned 16 national and regional workplace awards, including at least one in nearly every major market the firm serves. The only exceptions are Nashville, where Pinnacle retired from workplace award programs following 10 straight years of first place finishes, and Huntsville and Birmingham, where Pinnacle opened just two months ago. In September alone, Pinnacle was named the No. 1 Best Place to Work in Memphis for the sixth time and No. 15 Best Place to Work in Atlanta, the first time entering that program.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cAwards and recognition like these are indicative of one of the cornerstones of our ongoing success,\u201d said Terry Turner, Pinnacle\u2019s president and CEO. \u201cOur value proposition to clients is that we\u2019ll wow them with incredible service and advice, and our value proposition to shareholders is that we\u2019ll enrich them with outstanding long-term value. None of that can happen if we don\u2019t have the very best associates in our offices and make sure that they love coming to work every day. The top banking talent in the Southeast want to work here because of who we are and how we treat our people. The fact that it is so consistently recognized in our markets and in the nation shows that we\u2019re doing it right.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
