An employer of choice

Erickson campuses are continually recognized as employers of choice by local and regional human resources associations. Fully developed Erickson communities create approximately 1,000 jobs. Erickson’s benefits package has been internationally recognized as superior, as demonstrated by industry-leading employee retention rates.

In 2008 and 2009 the company was named one of Fortune Magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For.” Many of our benefit programs helped us achieve the two-time honor:

• To keep employees healthy, we contributed more than $29 million to pay more than 80% of health insurance premiums.
• To help fund employees' retirement, Erickson contributed more than $7.7 million in matching funds to 401k and 403b accounts.
• To continue our employees’ education, Erickson paid $971,000 in tuition costs for 564 employees.
