It comes as no surprise to Camden’s employees that we have been included on Glassdoor’s Top Places to Work 2020. With over 300+ reviews from current and former employees on Glassdoor and a score of 4.4 – Camden is honored to be #25 this year! Here’s a little insight as to why Camden has earned some of those great reviews from employees on Glassdoor and why you belong here!
Warm Welcome
We spend more time with our coworkers than almost anyone else, so why not spend that time with colleagues you like and respect? One thing that makes Camden different is that they are looking at you as a whole person, not just a list of skills on a resume. During the interview process, you’ll likely meet several members of our team. This allows you to see if the role is the right fit for you, too.
On your first day with Camden, you instantly are instantly a part of the family. You are greeted with a warm welcome and officially receive your first Camden hug! You will then be partnered with a Camden Mentor. The mentor program was designed to pair new employees or a current employee entering a new role, with a seasoned Camden veteran. The mentor aids their mentee by helping them learn their new responsibilities and sharing all things Camden!
Focus on Employee Development
How valuable would it be for you to join an organization that invests in your success and growth? It is invaluable! One Glassdoor reviewer said, “I love that Camden offers nonstop training courses. If you are someone new to this field like me, it was a huge plus that Camden takes the time to train you and set you up to be successful in your role.”
What you’ll find at Camden is a treasure trove of training, tools, and resources to help you learn and be successful. You have access to our amazing in-house training classes as well as a plethora of online learning guides and courses. Our trainers even come out to your community to do specialized training that is specific to your team’s needs. Camden also encourages pursuing your higher education. Not only do they want you to receive a degree, but they will also help pay for it! You can be reimbursed up to $4,500 a year in college tuition to further your education.

Communication and Appreciation
Camden fosters an atmosphere of respect and caring. Employees often refer to their peers not as co-workers but as family. Communication and appreciation are key to a successful company, and no one does it better than Camden. Every year all our team members come together at our Annual ACE Awards. We get to celebrate each other, our amazing achievements as a company and hear from our top executives about the future. It is one of the best Camden days of the year!
You never feel like you don’t matter at Camden. One Glassdoor reviewer stated it perfectly, “I am treated with the utmost respect by my peers and superiors, my opinions are valued and wanted.” We love hearing from our team members on how we can make Camden even better. We have a platform that any employee can post an idea to help make a process easier or what benefits they would like to see. Our executive teams review all ideas and respond to each of the ideas with the most engagement.
We have Fun!
One of Camden’s nine values is to Have Fun! You can work, laugh and have fun at the same time with Camden. You could be playing a joke on a co-worker, going bowling with your team or creating a skit to share. We are always having a great time! Having our team members enjoy their career, being happy and having fun every single day is what we strive for. A Glassdoor review sums up Camden’s values exactly… “Everyone is welcoming and helpful. Additionally, everyone is genuinely happy to be there. They are always smiling and having a good time. Who says your job can't be fun?” We couldn’t agree more!
