Employees credited the firm’s success to a professional environment that prioritizes trust and purpose. One staff member noted that the bank distinguishes itself by valuing problem-solving and human connection over taking the path of least resistance. This internal culture is steered by CEO Marc Campbell and a leadership team that has overseen a rapid expansion of the business.

Since 2020, when Taryn Reuter, Eric Lovins, and Thomas Payne acquired the original Minnesota-based institution, the bank has scaled significantly. Asset values have surged from $62 million to $500 million, while mortgage originations climbed to over $4 billion. The company has evolved from a small six-person operation into a nationwide entity employing more than 700 professionals. Campbell emphasized that the award serves as a testament to the alignment between the employees’ integrity and the company’s core values.
