Tompkins Financial employs 150 people in the Hudson Valley, including at its affiliates, Tompkins Mahopac Bank, whose branches deliver banking services for consumers and businesses, and Tompkins Financial Advisors, which provides wealth management strategies. The Journal News Award, which was administered by WorkplaceDynamics was based on results of employee surveys about their workplace and various aspects of the work environment, such as alignment, execution, connection and other facets. In addition to being better places to work, Top Workplaces have been shown as more likely to be successful than peer organizations. 

“Time and time again, our research has proven that what’s most important to (employees) is a strong belief in where the organization is headed, how it’s going to get there, and the feeling that everyone is in it together,” said Doug Claffey, CEO of WorkplaceDynamics. “Without this sense of connection, an organization doesn’t have a shot at being named a Top Workplace.” 

Personnel from the Dutchess, Putnam and Westchester County locations of Tompkins Financial and its affiliates, Tompkins Mahopac Bank and Tompkins Financial Advisors, participated in the award’s 22-question employee survey, although the recognition focused on businesses located in the lower Hudson Valley. 

“We couldn't be more pleased to be selected as a Top Workplace in the lower Hudson Valley,” said Jerry Klein, president and CEO of Tompkins Mahopac Bank. “The fact that this honor comes as a result of scores and comments we received from an employee survey focused on all aspects of their work environment makes it all the sweeter. Bright and happy employees that love what they do and have a high level of engagement, create an environment for superior customer service, dedication to the communities we serve, and personal growth for our employees.”
