HOUSTON, TX - MORGAN, a leader in upscale multifamily development, construction and property management, has been named one of the Top Workplaces in the Houston area for 2018, ranking number two out of 50 companies in the Midsize-company category and earning a special award for the "Most Clued In Senior Management." According to The Houston Chronicle, which sponsors the annual awards, the Top Workplaces ranking showcases regional companies that are the very best at maintaining a desirable working environment.
"My father, Bill Morgan, founded this company 60 years ago on a culture of success and care," said CEO Mike Morgan. "We strive every day to create a welcoming work environment, making our people feel valued and involved as part of the team. This team culture has worked, evolving into a growing business that has achieved optimal success over the decades."
This clearly shows in the company's actions. When Hurricane Harvey left some employees without homes, for example, MORGAN provided them with places to stay at one of its 25 area properties at no cost. Employee recognition programs publicly express the company’s appreciation: Quarterly peer-driven Circle of Excellence Awards are given to employees exceeding expectations, and the Bill Morgan Award is presented to an individual at the end of the year for "going above and beyond."
"Everyone is a team player here, and it shows," said President Alan Patton. "We provide each employee with the opportunity and resources for personal and professional growth, achieving great results, having fun and enjoying each other's company. We all have a vested interest in the company's success. Everyone supports each other. We truly feel part of the Morgan family."
MORGAN has developed more than $3 billion in multifamily projects, and today is active in Texas, Florida, California, Arizona, Colorado and Kansas.
The 2018 Top Workplace awards were based on responses from more than 80,000 Houston area employees who rated their companies in categories that included potential for advancement, work schedule flexibility, communication, values, pay and benefits, and leadership. The surveys were conducted by Energage, a Philadelphia-based research and consulting firm.
