Watkins Insurance Group has once again been recognized as one of the Greater Austin Top Workplaces for 2025, marking the agency’s 15th straight year on the list. The award is based entirely on feedback from Watkins employees through an independent survey conducted by Energage, LLC, an organization known for measuring workplace culture and employee experience across the country.
The employee insights behind this recognition highlight key strengths at Watkins Insurance Group: supportive leadership, opportunities for growth, and the confidence staff feel in being able to make meaningful contributions. These results reinforce the agency’s long-standing commitment to being an employer of choice in Central Texas.
“Feedback from our team shapes how we hire, develop talent, and support one another,” said Kimberly Vasquez, Watkins’ Human Resources Manager. “Earning a spot on this list for 15 years tells us we’re building the kind of workplace where people feel valued and heard. That matters not just for our culture, but for our clients and our community.”
Energage CEO Eric Rubino also emphasized the importance of employee-driven recognition. “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.”
