KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Edfinancial Services is proud to announce it has been named one of the Top 100 companies in the nation in the 2026 USA TODAY Top Workplaces awards program. This marks the first time the company has ranked within the Top 100 nationally, adding to a streak of Top Workplace recognitions that dates back to 2019.
The 2026 Top Workplaces USA awards are based on employee feedback collected through the 2025 Energage workplace survey, an anonymous research-backed survey that measures employees’ workplace experiences and overall satisfaction. The program recognizes organizations that prioritize a people-first culture and foster an exceptional employee experience.
In addition to its national recognition, Edfinancial Services was also recently named a 2026 Top Workplace in the Knoxville area, based on employee survey results gathered in 2026.
The rankings and awards are compiled by Energage, a leading employee engagement and workplace culture research company. Employees complete the confidential survey anonymously, providing honest feedback about workplace culture, leadership, opportunities for growth, feeling respected and supported, and overall happiness in the workplace.
The USA TODAY Top Workplaces program recognizes organizations with 150 or more employees that have created exceptional workplace cultures. More than 42,000 organizations were invited to participate in this year’s awards process.
Edfinancial Services continues to invest in employee growth, workplace culture, and community impact while serving millions of customers nationwide.
