PEOPLE magazine and Great Place to Work have honored First American Equipment Finance as one of the 2024 PEOPLE® Companies that Care. This is First American’s third time being named to this nationwide list, this year coming in at #74.

The PEOPLE® Companies that Care list is based on over 1.3 million employee survey responses and data from companies representing the experience of more than 8.2 million employees. Companies also submit essays which are validated by employee survey data to give a complete picture of the way an organization cares for its employees, its community, and the planet. To be considered for the list, companies must be Great Place To Work Certified™ and have at least 10 U.S. employees.  

“We are honored to be recognized alongside remarkable organizations from across the country,” said CEO, Alan Sikora. “I am incredibly proud of our colleagues and their commitment to helping others – their passion and dedication helps create lasting positive change.”

First American believes in a culture of giving back, using the power and resources of its organization for social good. The company’s employee-led Corporate Citizenship Team creates a platform for colleagues to activate their passions and give back to the community. In 2023, First American colleagues financially supported more than 50 non-profits across the U.S. through fundraisers and corporate gifts, paired with over 1,500 volunteer hours. Every colleague has 16 hours of annual volunteer time off (VTO) to support causes that matter most to them.
