For the third year, Johnson Financial Group on Fortunes 100 Best Companies to Work For list Johnson Financial Group, the $5.7 billion financial services (parent) company of Johnson Bank and Johnson Insurance, has been ranked 22nd on Fortune magazine's annual list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For. This is the Racine Company's third appearance on the nationally-prominent list. "Our family believes that a great company is built on great values like the importance of family, community and respect for people," said company chairman, Helen Johnson Leipold. "This recognition is a testament to all of our associates living those values each and every day." JFG's practice of paying associates who miss work due to a crisis was one factor listed in their inclusion on the list. Employees also collectively volunteer tens of thousands of hours of community service. Each of their more than 1,300 associates dedicated an average of 60 volunteer hours last year. "Given the difficult year the financial industry has gone through, this one is an even greater source of pride for our associates," said Richard Hansen, President and CEO of Johnson Financial Group. "To think a company of our size compares with the likes of Google and DreamWorks. We couldn't be more proud of this win."
