McCarthy ’s Sacramento office was named the best large company employer by the Sacramento Business Journal. Based on an employee survey, McCarthy ranked number one out of all participating companies with 151+ employees in the region.
“Out of all the awards to receive, this one is incredibly rewarding and a tribute to our whole team’s focus and hard work in recent years,” said Rich Henry, President of McCarthy’s Northern Pacific Division. “In Northern California, we pride ourselves as one of the largest and most respected builders and community leaders; however, our employees’ satisfaction and love for the work is why we’re so successful. Our greatest assets at McCarthy walk through the door every day.”
The A+ Employers awards are a result of employee surveys. These survey questions cover categories such as work environment, work-life balance, job satisfaction, advancement opportunities, management, compensation and benefits. Companies needed substantial employee participation to be considered. The employee’s scores were averaged into an overall score, and McCarthy achieved the highest score in the large company category.
“I am extremely proud of our team in Sacramento, as the office is a true testament to the team-oriented, open-door and collaborative culture McCarthy promotes. This win is especially gratifying because we rose to the top slot among seven tough finalists,” McCarthy CEO Mike Bolen added. “Over the years, McCarthy’s offices across the country have been recognized with such awards, which are a tribute to our people – our employee owners.”
The Sacramento Business Journal presented McCarthy with its award at the annual A+ Employers event on Oct. 29, 2008. McCarthy is featured in the publication’s “A+ Employers” supplement.
