“We are proud to be certified as a Great Place to Work for the second year in a row,” said Rhea Goff, Senior Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer. “This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to fostering an exceptional employee experience. Our culture, which is built on the principle of ‘thinking like an owner,’ continues to thrive thanks to our dedicated team members whose passion, collaboration, and commitment make St. Joe a place where people and the Company can grow and succeed together.”

"Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that The St. Joe Company stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."

According to Great Place To Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find excellent leadership at certified workplaces. Additionally, employees are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work and are twice as likely to be paid fairly and have a fair chance at promotion.

“Our employees’ feedback is the most meaningful part of the Great Place to Work survey,” said Gabrielle Testa, Vice President of Human Resources. “Some of the highest-ranked responses reflected how proud our team members are to work at St. Joe and how strongly they feel that their contributions make a difference. These results affirm that our culture is one where people feel valued, connected to our purpose, and empowered to help shape the company’s continued success.”
