Robert W. Baird & Co., Inc. is listed among the top 20 Great Workplaces in Financial Services.

Fortune.com and the Great Place to Work Institute placed Baird at number 6 among large financial services companies including Edward Jones and William Blair.

“We are honored to be recognized as a great place to work among financial services firms nationwide,” said Les Bear, managing director of Baird’s Chester County office in Exton. “We believe that being a great place to work enables us to attract and retain talented professionals who provide the best service and advice to our clients.”

The 20 honored companies were chosen from 50 financial services companies whose employees took the Trust Index survey. Baird administered the Trust Index survey to companies and randomly selected employees.

Baird was recently a co-managing underwriter for Chester County’s 2014 general obligation bonds, helping the county save more than $4.5 million and fund its capital investment program.

Robert W. Baird & Co. was also ranked the nation’s No. 1 municipal bond underwriter for 2014.
