Aegis Living made the list of the Top 50 Best Places to Work in 2017, according to Glassdoor. This is the first time that a senior living company has been named on the list.
“We’re a high touch business, nurturing more than 2,000 seniors,” said Aegis Living Founder and CEO Dwayne Clark. “We’re amazingly honored … our employees deserve this award.”
In a news release, Aegis said the award is surprising because it breaks almost every rule on what it takes to be a “Best Place to Work.” It’s senior living in a youth-obsessed culture. It’s high touch in a high tech world. It’s a mission-based career in a selfie society.
Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Redmond, Aegis serves residents in Washington, California, and Nevada — with six new developments in the Puget Sound region.
