Walnut Creek, CA — Great Place To Work® and Fortune have selected Sequoia for the 2023 Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate™. This is Sequoia’s first time making the list, ranking number 8 overall. Earning a spot means that Sequoia’s one of the best companies to work for in the country. This respected accolade shows Sequoia's commitment to fostering a positive and inclusive workplace culture, where team members thrive and contribute to the company's ongoing successes.
The Best Workplaces in Real Estate award relies on the analysis of survey feedback from over 27,000 employees from Great Place To Work Certified™ companies in the real estate industry.
"Our team members exhibit our company culture on a daily basis," says Enrica Suson, Vice President of Human Resources. "They show they care for others by supporting and uplifting each individual on the team and the residents and external customers they come in contact with. They are a big reason why we have an opportunity to showcase Sequoia on this prestigious list in our industry."
Great Place To Work compiles its lists through the exclusive For All™ Methodology. This approach involves assessing and certifying numerous organizations as part of America's most extensive annual workforce study, drawing from an impressive pool of over 1.3 million survey responses and data sourced from companies with a collective workforce of over 7.5 million employees this year alone.
This award celebrates companies that prioritize team member satisfaction, professional growth, and innovation within the real estate industry. Sequoia’s survey responses stood out among its peers for its exceptional efforts in creating a supportive environment that encourages collaboration, creativity, and personal development.
"Congratulations to the Best Workplaces in Real Estate,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “These companies know that it isn’t the industry — but the company — that determines the employee experience. By putting people first, they are reaping the rewards: higher levels of performance, innovation, and customer experience.”
