IPA Management Selected as One of the 2015 Careerbuilder® Top Companies to Work for in Arizona

Phoenix, AZ, July 16, 2015 (Newswire.com) - IPA Management was recently named one  of 2015 Careerbuilder® Top Companies to Work for in Arizona, earning a top spot on the list medium size employers with 100 to 999 on staff.

Participating companies completed a two-part assessment process conducted by the independent workplace research firm, Best Companies Group (BCG). Part one of the process was the Employer Questionnaire, where BCG asked about benefits, HR policies and employee perks. Part two was the Employee Engagement and Satisfaction Survey which measured the employee experience in eight core focus areas: “Leadership and Planning”, “Corporate Culture and Communications”, “Role Satisfaction”, “Work Environment”, “Relationship with Supervisor”, “Training, Development and Resources”, “Pay and Benefits”, and “Overall Engagement”. Using the combined data from the assessment, BCG identified 75 top employers in the state.

“This Top Company list gets more competitive each year”, says Denise Gredler, CEO of BestCompaniesAZ and consulting partner for the program. “The list winners had very impressive employee survey results averaging an overall favorable rate of 88 percent and an overall employee engagement score of 91 percent, which is more than double the national average. These winners should be very proud of their engaged workforces. This presents a powerful opportunity for award- winners to promote their company culture to retain and attract the best talent.”

“Our goal at IPA is to create a culture in which our team members feel valued and connected. We strive to provide meaningful experiences through thoughtfully planned team events, trainings and community programs to help nurture relationships and help people connect,” said Heidi Arave, regional property manager at IPA. “To be recognized as one of Arizona’s “Top Companies to Work for” is a true testament to our supportive work environment, and we are most proud that our employees’ experiences and feedback are at the core of this honor.”

The 75 “Top Companies" were honored at an awards breakfast reception on June 25, at the Hyatt Regency Phoenix and featured in The Arizona Republic, as well as online at topcompanies.azcentral.com and www.bestcompanies.com
