Accolades
Mental health awareness is a critically evolving topic, that is most often recognized during Mental Health Awareness month in May. However, mental health and well-being is ingrained in BHG Financials’ company culture and values, with an emphasis on working hard and playing hard. We understand that for our employees to perform at their best, they need to be able to step back and recharge. To ensure they have that opportunity, we provide our employees with a full suite of benefits and perks.
BHG Financial was founded in 2001 and has grown rapidly ever since. Today, our team is made up of over 1,400 employees from across the country, with each employee having the option to work in the office or remotely. Unlike other companies that quickly recalled this allowance to their employees, BHG has kept it going, utilizing it as an advantage to attract one-of-a-kind top talent. However, due to this transforming work environment, BHG leaders recognize and continue to find ways to support the mental health challenges that take a toll on all employees.
Improving mental health is always something that BHG Financial has focused on. BHG’s leadership strongly promotes and encourages all employees to take advantage of the resources provided including employer sponsored counseling services, health coaching, gym trainers, and more. At BHG, these initiatives begin from the top down.
“Mental health impacts every single aspect of a person’s life. It affects the way one feels, behaves, and thinks. In other words, it influences the way one functions from day to day,” said Eric Castro, Co-Founder of BHG Financial. “Individuals that get the support and treatment needed to cope with mental health can flourish and live life to their full potential. Together we must break the mental health stigma that leaves so many people suffering in secret and focus on our well-being.”
BHG Financial knows the importance of combating burnout and the company-wide Wellness Weekend program addresses just that. Wellness Weekends give all employees a 3-day weekend every month to connect with family, disconnect from the computer, and focus on their life outside of work.
“When we’re at work we give it our all, but we recognize the need to unplug and recharge. Wellness Weeks mean a lot to us as leaders and employees, it’s not just an extra day off, it’s an opportunity to reset, said Al-Crawford, Co-Founder and CEO. “To get the best out of our employees, we provide them with not only the tools, but also the time to help them achieve their best. Mental health is something we take very seriously; working as a single unit means we win and learn together.”
Today, our full program of benefits includes:
At BHG, we believe our employees are our #1 asset and best investment; we continuously strive to achieve a strong work-life balance. We believe if you truly invest in your people, the result is a corporate culture that can’t be beat.
