New American Funding has been named a Best Workplace in Financial Services and Insurance by Fortune and Great Place to Work for 2019. The national mortgage lender ranked 11th on the annual list, moving up from its spot of 26th from last year.
 
“We’re thrilled to have FORTUNE and Great Place to Work recognize us as one of the Best Workplaces in America,” said Rick Arvielo, CEO of New American Funding. “It’s an honor to make this list for the fourth consecutive year. We couldn’t be more excited to know that our employees love working for New American Funding!”
 
Great Place to Work compiled the list by gathering feedback from more than 726,000 employees at leading financial organizations across the country. The firm used a Trust Index survey to have employees anonymously rate their companies in several key areas including leadership strength, pride in their organization, opportunities for professional growth, and work-life balance. Of the New American Funding employees who were surveyed, 91 percent said they have a great workplace environment.
 
Employees say that New American Funding is a great place to work because of the “family-like feel,” “the great NAF360 culture and atmosphere,” and the “amazing support that they receive from their team leaders.” Employees also think that when joining New American Funding, “you’re made to feel welcome” and the “leadership team embody the best characteristics of the company.”
