For the seventh consecutive year, Savage and Associates has been named one of the region’s top workplaces by the Toledo Blade. Additionally, Savage received the superior values award.
“To be a top workplace means you need remarkable people,” stated J.R. Toland, president and CEO, Savage. “Of course, this includes our team of more than 160 associates across four locations – their energy, passion and dedication is contagious. However this also includes our clients – they drive us so fiercely every day to live our mission of serving others.”
Being named a top workplace is based on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner, Energage, LLC. The Blade partnered with Energage to conduct the anonymous survey that uniquely measures 15 drivers of engaged cultures that are critical to the success of any organization, such as alignment, execution, and connection.
Savage has offices in Maumee, Bowling Green, Findlay and Ottawa, Ohio.
Third-party rankings and recognitions are no guarantee of future investment success and do not ensure that a client or prospective client will experience a higher level of performance or results. These ratings should not be construed as an endorsement of the advisor by any client nor are they representative of any one client’s evaluation.
The list recognizes advisory firms for their exemplary efforts to give back to their communities by promoting a culture of philanthropy and volunteerism amongst employees and financial advisors. Submissions were evaluated blindly by a panel of judges based on criteria including employee benefits, company contributions, and philanthropic events and programs.
Savage and Associates hired five local college students with northwest Ohio ties to join the advisor internship program this summer.
