From free food to foosball to unlimited paid leave, fintech firms offer a variety of unique perks.
All of those benefits — and more — are offered by the 50 companies that made SourceMedia’s second annual list of Best Fintechs to Work For. The list includes a wide variety of companies, such as small-business lenders, wealth management software developers, direct mortgage lenders, digital banks and payments platforms. The smallest company, Fountain City Fintech, has just 15 employees, while the biggest, Ally Financial, has more than 8,000.
These companies go out of their way to ensure their employees are having fun — whether it's competing in office Olympics or escaping to the nap pod. Others are focused on serving their communities through organizing 5k races that raise money for charity and hiring local artists to create masterpieces. And many promote a healthy work-life balance by limiting after-hours meetings and providing sabbaticals.
Below are highlights of the 50 fintechs that made our list. Employee totals for each company are for U.S. staff only, and some companies may have higher overall headcounts.
