GTE Financial, one of Florida’s largest credit unions, has been named one of America’s Greatest Midsized Workplaces 2025 by Newsweek and Plant-A Insights Group. The award is based on a  rigorous evaluation and analysis of 3.5 million online employee reviews, and public data from more than 9,000 U.S. companies with 500 to 1,000 employees.

“As we celebrate our 90th Anniversary, this recognition is especially meaningful,” said Brian Best, President and CEO of GTE Financial. “It speaks to the incredible culture we’ve built together and the passion, care, and commitment our employees bring to our members and community every single day.”

Midsize companies play a crucial role in the U.S. economy, offering career opportunities across various industries. According to the National Center for Middle Market, there are around 200,000 middle market businesses in the U.S., representing one-third of the private sector GDP and employing approximately 48 million people.

Out of thousands of eligible organizations, GTE Financial is one of just 36 distinguished companies in Florida and 498 nationally recognized this year. The not-for-profit credit union founded in 1935 amidst the Great Depression, continues its commitment to delivering exceptional services and innovative solutions that prioritize the needs of its members and the communities it serves.
