Polen Capital Named to P&I’s “Best Places to Work” for Eighth Year in a Row
For the eighth consecutive year, Polen Capital has captured a spot on the Pensions & Investments Best Places to Work in Money Management list.
The annual survey and recognition program is dedicated to identifying and recognizing the best employers in the money management industry. Polen was named to the list of top asset managers with 100-499 employees who elected to participate in the survey.
From offering an innovative work environment to continually investing in each employee, Polen Capital is committed to doing the right thing in the right way for our clients, our community, and our team.
Pensions & Investments partnered with Best Companies Group, a research firm specializing in identifying great places to work, to conduct a two-part survey process of employers and their employees. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company's workplace policies, practices, philosophy, systems and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation. The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies.
Several themes emerged from the employee survey feedback, which helped to produce the favorable ranking result for Polen. These included:
- Investment in Employees: Polen Capital invests in its employees in various ways, including best-in-class benefits, firm-wide events, and resources to address professional and personal challenges. There is a strong emphasis on continuous learning and development.
- Transparency and Communication: Employees have high regard for the firm’s clear communication of strategy and vision for the future. There is a deep commitment to upholding core values and the company's mission.
