BKCW Insurance Named in Business Insurance’s Annual Best Places to Work in Insurance

BKCW Insurance has announced it has been named in the annual Best Places to Work in Insurance program, which recognizes employers for their outstanding performance in establishing workplaces where employees can thrive, enjoy their work, and help their companies grow. This is BKCW’s fourth time to be awarded with this distinction (2019, 2020, & 2021).
 
BKCW is a risk management firm that was founded in 1952 with three locations in Austin, Temple, and Killeen. They provide risk consulting services, commercial insurance, employee benefits, and personal insurance to businesses and individuals.

“We are proud to be designated one of the top employers in the insurance industry for the fourth time, and we owe it to our tremendous employees who come in every day with great attitudes and maintain such an incredible culture. Our people are our most important asset, and we are grateful for them every day,” said Tyler Spears, Managing Partner at BKCW Insurance.

BKWC believes their success is directly tied to their commitment to their clients and their community. They are privately held, independent, and rank in the top 100 insurance brokers nationwide. Besides their culture, they attract and retain talent with competitive salaries, comprehensive benefits, plenty of opportunities for advancement and growth, and an environment that values teamwork. Some of their benefits include flex time, 401k matching, paid education and training, employer-paid health insurance, variable compensation bonus, 8 weeks paid maternity leave, bonuses for industry certifications, and 13 paid holidays.

Best Places to Work in Insurance is an annual sponsored content feature presented by the Custom Publishing unit of Business Insurance and Best Companies Group that lists the agents, brokers, insurance companies and other providers with the highest levels of employee engagement and satisfaction. Harrisburg, PA-based Best Companies Group identifies the leading employers in the insurance industry by conducting a free two-part assessment of each company. The first part is a questionnaire completed by the employer about company policies, practices and demographics. The second part is a confidential employee survey on engagement and satisfaction.

The program divides employers into the categories of small, 25-249 employees; medium, 250-999 employees; and large, 1,000 or more employees. This year’s report features 100 companies of various sizes, from 25 employees to more than 4,000.

The ranking and profiles of the winning companies will be unveiled in the November issue of Business Insurance and online at BusinessInsurance.com.
