At CRC Companies, we seek out highly motivated individuals who make things happen. People who tackle seemingly impossible challenges with intellect, finesse, and compassion for others. And who like to have a bit of fun while they do it.
A Place to Make Your Mark
Our people see purpose beyond the built environment, creating value – and improving lives – through superior execution, innovative operations, and a passion for creating positive change in communities.
“In everything we do, we infuse creativity and imagination. We bring together the best minds we can find, and throw all the ideas against the wall. Even the crazy ones.”
The Big Five
Keep it simple. Promote teamwork. Face reality. Push boundaries. Have fun. No matter the company or initiative, these five guiding principles started on a napkin 25 years ago and continue to inform everything we do.
“Those five core company values are really what it’s like to doing business here. They’re not just things we pay lip service to or are on some poster in the lobby. These are the values that guide the work we do here every day.”
A True Meritocracy
At CRC, the only limit to success is yourself. We're privately held, and our family of companies enjoys a long history of merit-based leadership. So, whether you're fresh out of school or a seasoned professional with a storied career, if your idea is a great one worth exploring, it will bubble to the top here.
“You don’t need 30 years of real estate experience to have a great idea! At CRC, the best idea wins, regardless of tenure or background. We’re not afraid to empower even the youngest employees who are willing to demonstrate creativity and lead.”
A Culture of Constant Innovation
Our people are lifelong learners and unafraid to take risks, so it's no surprise that innovation permeates everything we do. We're constantly applying lessons learned from other industries to offer our end users a better experience and change the future of tangible assets.
“We’ve given ourselves a mandate to include something that has never been done before in every project we build. We look at our entire portfolio as a lab where we have the opportunity to experiment with technologies, trends, and building innovations to stay at the forefront of this industry.”
A Thirst for Learning
When it comes to providing the mentoring, training, and professional development opportunities our people need to realize their full potential, CRC offers a wide range of programs and experiences to help our employees grow throughout every stage of their career.
“Being a life-long learner has always been at the core of my professional pursuits. So naturally, when looking for employers during my MBA program, it was at the top of my requirements. I’ve been so thankful CRC has continually demonstrated their commitment to advancing employees’ growth goals. I would be hard pressed to find another company like CRC that truly advocates for employees to reach for their goals like they have pushed me to accomplish mine.”
A Commitment to Philanthropy
At CRC, we are dedicated to bettering the communities and neighborhoods in which we live and work. Our 501(c)(3) public charity, CRC CARES, supports a varied array of worthwhile causes through charitable grants and volunteerism. The foundation has donated nearly $4.7 million to more than 400 deserving organizations to date.
“The opportunity to engage our employees, offices, and industry partners to raise awareness and resources for so many amazing groups has been truly rewarding. CRC CARES is making a real impact on both the local and national level.”
An Emphasis on People
Whether it's our employees, our community members, or our residents, CRC puts people first. We started our CRC[X] initiative for just that reason; a focus on the consumer experience across our nationwide portfolio to bring the best level of service to those who call a CRC community "home".
“We’re all shaped by our experiences - they’re the one thing that we take with us, everyday, everywhere we go. There’s a big opportunity here to impact lives through the stewardship of those experiences. Down to the last detail, CRC absolutely walks-the-walk when it comes to human-centricity.”
A Company that Values Fun
To us, having fun means enjoying what you do and the people you do it with, immersing yourself completely in a project, or taking the time to learn a skill you've always wanted to master. It also means dinner clubs and intramural sports, or battling it out in highly competitive ten-key tournaments and office mini golf. Our culture fosters personal connections and camaraderie that takes our work to the next level.
“At CRC we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We aren’t afraid to have fun as we believe it’s an important criteria for success, and a by-product of an environment that values creativity, innovation, and a collaborative spirit.”
