Four Va.-Based CUs Make American Banker's List of Best CUs to Work For

Four Virginia-based credit unions have made American Banker's 2022 list of "Best Credit Unions to Work For" -- Apple Federal Credit Union ($4.1 billion in assets), Chartway Credit Union ($2.6 billion); InFirst Federal Credit Union ($252 million) and Justice Federal Credit Union ($928 million).

The Great Resignation has made it difficult for businesses to retain and attract talent, but the institutions on this year's Best Credit Unions to Work For list have figured out what it takes to be a great employer. Seventy credit unions made the list this year.

The winners were selected through two different surveys with the help of Best Companies Group. The first survey examines employee satisfaction and covers eight areas, including leadership and planning, corporate culture and communication and overall engagement.
