Woodmont Properties — a leading owner, developer and manager of commercial real estate throughout the United States — today announced it has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2020 honor by NJ.com. The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner Energage, LLC. The anonymous survey uniquely measures 15 drivers of engaged cultures that are critical to the success of any organization including alignment, execution and connection.

“It’s a true honor to be recognized among some of the top companies in New Jersey,” said Eric Witmondt, Chief Executive Officer of Woodmont Properties. “As we have grown and expanded our offerings over the years, one thing has remained constant – our people first approach and commitment to fostering a dynamic team of professionals who are all working toward a common goal.”

Driven by a belief that a company is better when it grows from within, Woodmont Properties has cultivated a unique culture in which every team member receives recognition for their individual contributions to every success, milestone, or new opportunity. Woodmont has grown from 35 team members in 2005, to over 200 today.

“Our team members are truly connected and enthusiastic about our culture and it is because of this connection that we have been named Top Places to Work in New Jersey. They provide extraordinary service to our communities through that same connectivity and engagement with us as their employer,” said Cindy Gonzalez, Director of Human Resources.

With a family-oriented culture, the company often hosts events designed to bring various teams together. Recently, Woodmont organized an “Adopt a Park” initiative in Morristown with over 80 of its team members. The company also hosts an annual “Bowlapalooza,” summer picnic and holiday dance party.
