DANIA BEACH, Fla., May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- FirstService Residential, North America's leading residential property management company, has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America's Greatest Workplaces for Mental Well-Being 2025. This award reflects the company's ongoing commitment to fostering workplaces where associates can thrive.
The honor is based on one of the largest independent employee studies in the United States. More than 403,000 employees across companies with over 1,000 staff were surveyed, contributing over 4.9 million detailed reviews and insights on corporate culture, working conditions, leadership, and mental health resources.
"This recognition belongs to our associates, who make FirstService Residential an organization where people feel empowered, valued, and respected," said David Diestel, CEO. "That kind of culture does not happen by accident. It comes from listening, learning, and investing in our talent so we can better support one another and the communities we serve."
FirstService Residential prioritizes associate well-being across the United States and Canada through development, support, and feedback-driven programming. Its learning and culture-building platform, FirstService University, offers year-round education, including initiatives such as BE the Difference and Leadership Essentials, which focus on team culture, managing stress, achieving work-life balance, and leadership development. Associates also have access to an emergency Relief Fund, regular recognition programs, and local engagement events.
"At FirstService Residential, we continue to ask our associates what matters most to them, and we evolve our culture and resources based on their feedback," said Lupe Martinez-Mujica, chief people officer. "Some need financial or emotional support during a crisis, while others are looking for professional development opportunities to grow their careers. Whatever the need, FirstService Residential aims to meet it with care and intention."
This Newsweek honor follows Great Place To Work® and Fortune selecting FirstService Residential for the prestigious 2024 Fortune Best Workplaces in Real Estate™ List. In Canada, the company was also named as one of the 2025 Best Workplaces™.
