Kin earns Great Place To Work certification for third consecutive year
87% of employees say Kin is a great place to work, with scores up across every category
CHICAGO – May 27, 2026 – Kin, the direct-to-consumer provider of insurance and home finance solutions for homeowners, today announced it has earned Great Place To Work® Certification for the third consecutive year. Certified from May 2026 through May 2027, the recognition is based entirely on anonymous employee feedback — further confirmation that this accurately reflects the employee experience.
According to the latest survey, 87% of Kin employees say the company is a great place to work, compared to 57% at a typical U.S. company. Scores improved across all five measured categories: Fairness (+5 points), Pride (+4 points), Camaraderie (+3 points), Respect (+4 points) and Credibility (+6 points) — an average lift of 4.4 points over 2025. Kin’s results now place it within reach of the Top 100 Best Workplaces in the U.S. benchmark, with particularly strong scores in areas around fairness and inclusivity. Want to be part of it?

“Building a great company starts with building a place where great people can do their best work,” said Sean Harper, CEO of Kin. “What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it comes directly from our employees. We’ve worked hard to create a culture where people feel trusted, supported and connected to the impact they’re making for homeowners every day, and it’s encouraging to see that reflected in this feedback.”
This recognition comes alongside continued investment in the professional growth of Kin’s employees. Within the last year, two C-level leaders were promoted from within. Douglas Everson was recently promoted to chief product officer and Kevin Greene to chief technology officer, deepening the company’s commitment to building products and technology that serve homeowners while also creating an environment where top talent can thrive.
