HALES CORNERS, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wimmer Communities has been awarded a 2017 Top Workplaces honor by The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The Top Workplaces lists are based solely on the results of an employee feedback survey administered by WorkplaceDynamics, LLC, a leading research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement. Several aspects of workplace culture were measured, including Alignment, Execution, and Connection, just to name a few.

“The Top Workplaces award is not a popularity contest. And oftentimes, people assume it’s all about fancy perks and benefits,” says Doug Claffey, CEO of WorkplaceDynamics. “But to be a Top Workplace, organizations must meet our strict standards for organizational health. And who better to ask about work life than the people who live the culture every day—the employees. Time and time again, our research has proven that what’s most important to them is a strong belief in where the organization is headed, how it’s going to get there, and the feeling that everyone is in it together.” Claffey adds, “Without this sense of connection, an organization doesn’t have a shot at being named a Top Workplace.”

“We at Wimmer Communities have always taken a great deal of pride in our organization,” says Mark Wimmer, President of Wimmer Brothers Realty, Inc. “We attempt to furnish our employees with a comfortable work environment and competitive compensation, so we are honored to have once again been selected for the award, particularly as the judges were our employees.”
