NBSC, a division of Synovus Bank, has been named one of the best places to work in South Carolina by Best Companies Group, a workplace consulting firm. The award is sponsored by the S.C. Chamber of Commerce.

"We are very honored to be included on this list," Chuck Garnett, CEO of Synovus Regional and NBSC, said in a news release. "Our people care about each other, and they care about serving our customers, and it is that caring attitude that makes this a great place to work."

The award is open to publicly or privately held businesses, for-profit or nonprofit organizations or government entities that have a facility and at least 15 employees working in South Carolina. It must also have been in operation at least one year.

NBSC has a branch in Bluffton and one on Hilton Head Island.
