Pinnacle Holding Company Ranks Among Highest-Scoring Businesses on Inc. Magazine’s Annual List of Best Workplaces for 2021

Posted on May 11, 2021

Syracuse, NY | (May 12, 2021) – Pinnacle Holding Company has been named to Inc. magazine’s annual list of the Best Workplaces for 2021. Hitting newsstands May 18 in the May/June 2021 issue, and as part of a prominent Inc.com feature, the list is the result of a wide-ranging and comprehensive measurement of American companies that have created exceptional workplaces and company culture whether teams are operating in person or remotely.

Collecting data from thousands of submissions, Inc. singled out 429 honorees this year. Each nominated company took part in an employee survey, conducted by Quantum Workplace, on topics including management effectiveness, perks, and fostering employee growth. The organization’s benefits were also audited to determine the company’s overall score and ranking.

“It has always been important for companies to take care of their most valuable asset, which is their people. Companies operating post-COVID will need to adapt in even more creative ways to win over and keep their company culture ahead of competitors. We invest in many different forms of capital to keep our culture so that our people know it’s their happiness that keeps us growing at the impressive rate that we do,” says Gregg Kidd, CEO of Pinnacle Holding Company.

“The definition of a positive workplace has changed drastically over the past year,” says Inc. magazine editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “Stocked fridges and nap pods were no longer perks many companies could rely on once work went remote. So, this year’s list is even more important as it reveals organizations that continue to enrich the lives of its employees amid a pandemic.”

Celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2021, Pinnacle Holding Company, and its subsidiaries, provide an unbeatable combination of synergistic services that can support individuals, businesses, and other organizations. From wealth management to human resources management, no other firm has the resources or provides the one-on-one connection that our advisors and consultants deliver.
