Camden Property Trust Again Named One of Fortune Magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For”
Camden Property Trust (NYSE:CPT) announced today that it has been ranked
#10 on FORTUNE Magazine’s 16th annual “100 Best Companies to Work For”
list. This marks the sixth consecutive year that Camden has been
included on FORTUNE’s list, and Camden’s fourth consecutive year in the
top 10. The full list and related stories will appear in the February 4,
2013 issue of FORTUNE and can be accessed online now at www.fortune.com/bestcompanies.
“We are honored to be recognized for the sixth consecutive year as one
of the best workplaces in America,” said Keith Oden, President of Camden
Property Trust. “Our inclusion on this list is a tribute to the hard
work and dedication of our 1,900 Camden associates.” To pick the 100
Best Companies to Work For, FORTUNE partners with the Great Place to
Work Institute to conduct the most extensive employee survey in
corporate America: 259 firms participated in this year’s survey. More
than 277,000 employees at those companies responded to a survey created
by the institute, a global research and consulting firm operating in 45
countries around the world. Two-thirds of a company’s score is based on
the results of the institute’s Trust Index survey, which is sent to a
random sample of employees from each company. The survey asks questions
related to their attitudes about management’s credibility, job
satisfaction, and camaraderie. The other third is based on responses to
the institute’s Culture Audit, which includes detailed questions about
pay and benefit programs and a series of open-ended questions about
hiring practices, methods of internal communication, training,
recognition programs, and diversity efforts. After evaluations are
completed, if news about a company comes to light that may significantly
damage employees’ faith in management, FORTUNE may exclude it from the
list. Any company that is at least five years old and has more than
1,000 U.S. employees is eligible.
