FourLeaf Federal Credit Union
FourLeaf Federal Credit Union has earned a spot on the 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces for Women list in the Small & Medium category, an accolade awarded by Great Place To Work and Fortune magazine. This recognition highlights the credit union’s commitment to fostering a supportive workplace culture for women, based entirely on confidential employee feedback and an in-depth analysis of workplace dynamics.
Significance of the Recognition
The ranking is determined through comprehensive surveys that assess various factors, including leadership accessibility, career advancement opportunities, and the overall sense of belonging among female employees. The analysis emphasizes equitable treatment across all roles, ensuring that women, from managers to new hires, experience a workplace that values their contributions.
Melissa Feeney, Chief Administrative Officer at FourLeaf, expressed pride in this recognition, stating, “Being named a Fortune Best Workplace for Women is far more than an honor; it’s a reflection of who we are and what we believe.” She emphasized the organization’s daily efforts to create an environment where every employee feels supported and empowered.
Empowering Women in Finance
This recognition comes as FourLeaf shines a light on the crucial role women play in the finance sector. In 2024, the credit union launched the Money Like a Woman initiative, aimed at promoting inclusivity, transparency, and financial confidence. The movement encourages both members and employees to adopt a collaborative approach to financial management, drawing upon the strengths many women bring to this field.
While specific employee comments remain confidential, the analysis from Great Place To Work indicates that successful organizations are characterized by high levels of employee pride and trust. Women at the companies featured in the 2025 list report significantly positive experiences regarding advancement, connection to purpose, and trust—areas that FourLeaf has prioritized in its cultural transformation.
Linda Armyn, President and CEO of FourLeaf, noted, “As we continue to grow as FourLeaf, this recognition affirms that our culture is scaling with us.” She highlighted the importance of employee voices in achieving this honor, reinforcing the credit union’s commitment to nurturing a positive workplace environment.
To qualify for this distinction, organizations must employ a minimum of 50 women, have at least 20% of women in non-executive managerial roles, and include at least one woman in C-suite leadership. The analysis surveyed nearly 605,000 women across various organizations, making this recognition a significant indicator of workplace equity.
