MISSISSAUGA, ON, April 4, 2025 /CNW/ – Today, goeasy Ltd. (TSX: GSY), one of Canada’s leading consumer lenders focused on delivering a full suite of financial services to Canadians with near to non-prime credit, is pleased to announce that it has been named to this year’s Best Workplaces™ in Canada list for the second straight year.
goeasy’s more than 2,500 employees are the driving force behind the company’s success and its award-winning culture. Earning a spot on the 2025 Best Workplaces™ in Canada list highlights goeasy’s ongoing investment in an employee-centric, inclusive, and high-performance culture. The company achieved a record-high employee engagement score of 85% in 2024, which reflects a culture where employees feel valued and supported to grow their careers, with 88% of employees believing that everyone at goeasy can succeed to their full potential. From omnipresent career development opportunities to leadership training to market-leading wellness resources, goeasy is committed to creating a workplace where employees feel inspired, invested in, and able to reach their full potential.
“At goeasy, our people are the heart of everything we do—and this recognition is a reflection of the culture we’ve built together over the past 24 years,” said David Ingram, Executive Chairman of goeasy. “We’ve always believed that when you invest in your people, they take care of your customers, and success will follow. We’re proud to offer meaningful work, opportunities for growth, and a culture rooted in respect and purpose. This recognition affirms our commitment to evolving with our people’s needs and continuing to build a workplace where everyone can thrive.”
goeasy is proud to be named one of 50 organizations recognized for delivering an outstanding employee experience for all—a recognition made even more meaningful because it’s based on direct feedback from employees. The award is determined by the Great Place to Work® Trust Index™ survey, which assesses the consistency and quality of the workplace experience across all teams and roles. It measures key factors like trust in leadership, camaraderie, and pride in the organization, while also evaluating how those experiences differ across demographic groups—highlighting truly inclusive and equitable workplaces.
Organizations with over 1,000 employees, like goeasy, are also required to complete the Culture Audit™ questionnaire—an in-depth evaluation of the company’s culture, values, and employee programs. Based on those results, goeasy was also named Best Workplaces for Women and Best Workplaces with the Most Trusted Executive Teams earlier this year.
“The competition to achieve the designation of Best Workplaces in Canada is fierce, with over 900 companies competing. The only way to be recognized is to invest in an exceptional employee experience, and have this focus permeate every part of the organization.” Nancy Fonseca, SVP Client Services.
