MILWAUKEE, Wis. — Continental Properties has been recognized with a 2025 Top Workplaces Industry Award in Real Estate by Energage, a leading HR technology and research firm. This marks the company’s first time earning the industry-specific honor and places Continental among just 23 real estate organizations nationwide in the 500–999 employee category recognized for exceptional workplace culture.
The Top Workplaces Industry Awards celebrate companies across 11 sectors that prioritize their people and foster culture-driven excellence. Winners are selected based entirely on confidential employee feedback gathered through Energage’s research-backed engagement survey. The survey measures the drivers of an engaged workplace, including leadership, communication, alignment, and purpose.
“Being recognized as a Top Workplace in the Real Estate sector is especially meaningful because it’s rooted in the voices of our people,” said Nathan Ridgeway, Portfolio Vice President at Continental Properties. “At Continental, we don’t just develop exceptional communities, we cultivate an exceptional team culture. Our success starts with engaged, empowered team members who care deeply about delivering value to our residents and each other.”
According to Energage, recipients of the Top Workplaces Industry Awards demonstrate employee engagement levels that exceed the national average and lead their industries in cultivating workplace cultures where people thrive.
This new recognition complements Continental’s broader track record as a workplace of choice. The company was also named a 2025 Top Workplaces USA winner, an honor it has earned for five consecutive years. Regionally, Continental was recognized as a 2025 Top Workplace in Southeastern Wisconsin by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel for the 13th year in a row, and as a 2025 National Standard Top Workplace by the Star Tribune in Minnesota.
