Operation HOPE Recognized as a 2026 Top Workplace in Metro Atlanta by Axios

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Operation HOPE, a national nonprofit dedicated to helping low- and moderate-income Americans thrive in an ever-changing economy, today announced that it has been named a winner of the Top Workplaces 2026 award by Axios.

The Top Workplaces list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner Energage LLC, an employee engagement technology partner. The confidential survey measures key elements of the employee experience, including whether employees feel Respected & Supported, Enabled to Grow, and Empowered to Execute, among other factors.

“At Operation HOPE, our people are at the heart of our mission, and we are committed to creating an environment where they feel valued, supported and empowered to make a difference. This recognition from our employees is especially meaningful because it reflects the strong culture we have built here together,” said Brian Betts, President and Chief Financial Officer of Operation HOPE.

“Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “That's something to be proud of. In today's market, leaders must ensure they’re allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That's paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends.”
