Index shows Erie Insurance is a top 100 employer for workplace culture and among the nation’s best workplaces for employees to advance their careers

Erie Insurance (ERIE) has been named to the 2024 American Opportunity Index and recognized as a Top 100 Employer for workplace culture for the second consecutive year.

The American Opportunity Index is a joint project of the Burning Glass Institute, Harvard Business School and the Schultz Family Foundation. The annual employer study measures how effective large companies are at developing talent to drive business performance and advance individual careers.

“Erie Insurance is honored to be recognized in the 2024 American Opportunity Index," said Sean Dugan, executive vice president, Human Resources & Corporate Services. “This acknowledgement reflects our deep commitment to fostering a workplace where our employees can continuously develop themselves and advance their careers.” 

Erie Insurance’s Top 100 ranking for workplace culture highlights the company’s excellence in employee retention and recognizes the priority ERIE places on career development and promoting employees from within.

“Our culture is built on investing in our people, providing opportunities for growth and creating an environment that empowers individuals to achieve long-term success,” Dugan added.

The American Opportunity Index is fundamentally different from other national measures of employer quality. It is not based on corporate-submitted data or worker surveys but on an independent, data analysis of the career trajectories of more than five million employees at 395 of America’s largest companies.
