Creating a workplace where people genuinely enjoy coming to work doesn’t happen by accident—it’s built with intention, consistency, and a commitment to listening. That’s exactly what sets Kindred Homes apart, and it’s why the company has officially earned Great Place To Work Certification™.
This recognition is especially meaningful because it’s based entirely on employee feedback. In fact, 89% of Kindred Homes employees say it’s a great place to work—an impressive 32% higher than the average U.S. company. That kind of response speaks volumes about the culture being cultivated behind the scenes.
What This Certification Means
Great Place To Work® is widely recognized as a global authority on workplace culture, employee experience, and leadership practices that drive innovation and long-term success. Unlike many awards, this certification isn’t determined by a panel—it comes directly from employees, making it one of the most credible measures of a company’s internal culture.
Earning this designation reflects more than just a positive work environment. It signals a high level of trust, strong leadership, and a workplace where employees feel valued and heard.
Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work®, describes Certification™ as a “highly coveted achievement” that requires ongoing dedication to the employee experience. Because it’s rooted in real-time feedback, it offers an authentic look at how employees truly feel about where they work.
A Culture Built on Family Values
At its core, Kindred Homes operates with a family-first mindset. As a family-owned business, that philosophy extends beyond leadership and into everyday interactions across the company.
President Todd Miller emphasizes the importance of this recognition, noting that it reflects the voices of the people who shape the organization every day. Employee feedback isn’t just welcomed—it actively guides how the company evolves and improves.
That commitment shows up in meaningful ways:
- Open communication across all levels
- A supportive, team-oriented environment
- A genuine focus on employee well-being
- Opportunities for growth and input
It’s this approach that creates a workplace where employees feel respected, empowered, and proud to contribute.
More Than a Workplace
For Kindred Homes, culture isn’t a buzzword—it’s a foundation. The same care and attention that goes into building homes for customers is reflected internally in how the team is supported.
Earning Great Place To Work Certification™ reinforces what Kindred Homes has always aimed to do: create an environment where people can thrive, collaborate, and feel a true sense of belonging.
