Credit card debt looming over your head. The gnawing worry about whether you're saving enough for retirement. The mixture of joy and anxiety that comes with expecting a baby, wondering how you'll manage the added expenses. These aren't just personal concerns—they're the daily realities that follow millions of employees to work every day, silently impacting their performance and well-being.
At Thompson Thrift, a thriving real estate developer in Indianapolis, leadership began to notice these invisible burdens weighing on their team. The signs were subtle but unmistakable: increased absenteeism, difficulty focusing on tasks, and a general undercurrent of stress that seemed to show in the office. Shanoah Castlen, Total Rewards Specialist at Thompson Thrift, observed, "A lot of times, if individuals don't have a good handle on their finances, they can feel a lot of stress. It can affect the way they eat, the way they sleep, and then can potentially affect performance in their position too."
Shanoah and the Thompson Thrift leadership team recognized the need to take action. They aimed to offer their employees the tools and support to better their financial health and overall well-being.
“It’s something that is important for us that we target wellness holistically for our team members and their families. And we realized financial wellness is where we can have a huge impact.”
