DENVER, May 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/
-- For the third consecutive year, Apartment Investment and
Management Company (Aimco) has earned the distinction of being a
Denver Post Top Workplace.
Aimco's honor was based on results of a third-party survey of
its team members who evaluated the company on factors including
day-to-day work environment, leadership and values, employee
appreciation, and motivation. Team members gave Aimco high marks in
the areas of work/life balance, management, direction, execution
and engagement. The company's 2015 ranking was seven places higher
than in 2014, moving from number 19 to number 12. Aimco is
one of only six companies to improve its position on the list of
only 35 mid-size employers recognized this year.
"We are thrilled and honored to be named a top workplace once
again, and our higher ranking is a clear indication that our team
culture is strong," said Aimco Chairman and CEO Terry Considine. "I congratulate our Aimco team
members -- they earned this award by establishing a workplace where
collaboration, innovation, and world-class customer service
motivate us to achieve success. Our award reflects the team's
dedication and commitment to making Aimco a great place to
work."
Aimco's culture is distinguished by five defining pillars:
We live with gusto; we own it; we value relationships; we create
moments that matter; and we drive innovation and change.
Aimco actively promotes professional growth, career advancement and
leadership development, filling more than two-thirds of its open
management positions with internal candidates in 2014.
Through its philanthropic program Aimco Cares, Aimco gives each
team member 10 paid hours to be applied toward volunteer service in
communities, resulting in thousands of hours assisting local
nonprofits. Aimco Cares also supports members of the Aimco
team by offering scholarship programs for the children of team
members, and providing short-term financial assistance to employees
in crisis, through the Aimco Cares 4U initiative.
