Employee Testimonials
What does our workplace culture mean to you personally?
I am very fortunate to have become a part of the Lee Bank family. It means a lot to be valued as more than just an employee. There are so many opportunities to give back to the community and to help out our local businesses. The employee benefits are outstanding - I especially like being able to take advantage of the 529 College Savings Plan for my child!
- Dana
For me, Lee Bank’s culture means being part of an environment where support is felt from day one. I’ve received guidance, continuous training, and a genuine concern for each employee’s well-being. The benefits are not just incentives, they’re a way the bank shows it truly cares about its people. It’s a culture of respect, collaboration, and growth, where you feel like part of a family and are motivated to give your best every day.
I am so grateful to being part of this team.
- Lina
To me, our culture is all about feeling supported and valued, not just for the work I do, but for who I am. I’ve had the chance to grow my skills and earn certifications thanks to opportunities provided by Lee Bank, which has made a huge difference in my professional journey.
What I really love, though, is how we’re encouraged to stay connected with our community. Whether it’s through fun initiatives or chances to give back, it makes the work feel even more meaningful. Being part of a team that truly cares, about its people and its impact, means a lot to me.
- Jessica
The first thing I have to say about our culture is everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Not only to customers but to fellow employees. I feel valued here. We receive Berkshire Bucks in the Spring and Fall. This year there were tickets to Naumkeag for the Fall Pumpkin and Winter Lights events. My grandchildren loved the Winter Lights. Chuck personally delivers each one of us our paystubs so that he gets a moment to talk and catch up with each employee. Working for a community bank you get that feeling of family as opposed to being a number. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoy working at Lee Bank. I believe this is the reason we have won numerous times, “Best Workplace in Berkshire County
- Tina
I would encourage anyone looking to start or level up their career to put Lee Bank at the very top of their employer wish list. The time I’ve worked for Lee Bank has been the most fulfilling and rewarding work years of my career. Lee Bank encompasses a culture of employee value and employee investment. Our Leadership is committed to building a culture of creativity, collaboration and to actively develop employee talent from the moment you walk in the door. It’s no surprise to me the bank consistently wins Best Workplace in the Berkshires. Lee Bank is an outstanding place to come to work every day where you can dream some big dreams and make them come true.
- Laura
Working in an environment where employees feel valued and supported is how a workplace culture should be. I personally feel that Lee Bank has offered me opportunities for growth and given me the support/guidance to help our customers in any way possible every day. Communication, teamwork, respect, inclusivity, diversity, and empowerment are a few of many words that a positive workplace culture stands for me personally.
- Sandra
I value a kind, happy, and helpful environment in which I can learn, grow, and feel appreciated. A workplace that reciprocates the care and dedication that I put into my work every day. I found these qualities in Lee Bank. Before I was an employee, I had great experiences with Lee Bank as a customer. I received thoughtful, personalized service and when I saw an opportunity to join the Lee Bank team, I took it! With a background in providing exceptional customer service, I knew it was a match made in heaven! I am lucky to be here!
