Mattamy Homes: Leading in Workplace Culture for Five Years
In a significant achievement for workplace culture, Mattamy Homes has once again been recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in Phoenix by the Phoenix Business Journal, marking the fifth consecutive year that the company has received this prestigious award. This recognition reflects Mattamy's strong commitment to creating an exceptional work environment where employees feel valued, engaged, and empowered.
A Competitive Selection Process
The Best Places to Work awards are determined through a rigorous selection process conducted by Quantum Workplace, which incorporates extensive employee feedback. Out of a competitive pool of 195 nominations, only 96 organizations were honored, further illustrating the high standards of the award. Mattamy Homes emerged as a standout company in the small business category, competing against other companies that employ between 50 to 99 individuals.
Culture of Kindness and Collaboration
Don Barrineau, the President of Mattamy's Phoenix Division, expressed immense pride in this recognition, stating, "Being named one of the Best Places to Work for the fifth year in a row is something truly special. I feel fortunate to work with such an incredible team. Every day, they bring kindness, dedication, and a spirit of collaboration to everything we do. This recognition reflects the culture we've built together and our shared commitment to giving our homeowners the best experience possible." This quote encapsulates the essence of what makes Mattamy Homes a beloved employer.
Employee Engagement and Programs
Mattamy's success is largely attributed to its extensive employee engagement programs that ensure the well-being and satisfaction of its workforce. Here are some highlights of their initiatives:
1. Employee Home Ownership Program
Mattamy Homes supports its employees in achieving home ownership by offering financial assistance of up to 4.5% of the purchase price (up to $40,000) to help with the purchase of their very own Mattamy home. This unique benefit can be utilized every five years, making it a valuable and attractive offer for team members.
2. Mattamy Volunteer Program (MVP)
Giving back to the community is highly encouraged at Mattamy. The MVP program provides employees with paid volunteer days, community volunteer grants of $500, and matches employee donations up to $200 per fiscal year. Recent initiatives have seen team members participating in events like the annual 9/11 Meal Packing Event, where they helped pack 720 food packs for families in need through St. Mary's Food Bank.
3. Comprehensive Compensation and Benefits Package
Mattamy offers a competitive compensation structure alongside a comprehensive benefits package. This includes health, dental, and vision insurance; short-term and long-term disability; life insurance; flexible spending accounts; and a 401K plan with company matching. Additionally, they provide tuition reimbursement and various discounts on home, vendor services, and entertainment.
Looking Ahead
The final rankings for the Best Places to Work will be announced on December 16 during a special awards event at the Arizona Biltmore, LXR Hotels & Resorts in Phoenix. As it stands, Mattamy Homes continues to build a reputation not only as a leading homebuilder in North America but also as a model employer, committed to fostering a culture of workplace satisfaction and engagement.
