Listed below are testimonials from Chamber employees about why they think the Detroit Regional Chamber is the best place to work!

"For many years, the Chamber has been a universal dynamic role model for business success throughout the Detroit region, providing business assistance and educational opportunities to members, prospects and colleagues all over the world. The unique and wide range of professional talent and experiences among staff contributes to this. Being part of such a talented group of individuals, who are willing to share their gifts, has been a rewarding and positive learning experience for me. I think our hard work and dedication to serving others speaks for itself!"

"Time off is very important, and the Chamber allows great flexibility with its Paid Time Off program. I also appreciate the focus on wellness. Our program offerings and facilities far surpass those at any other company I have worked."

"The Spirit Team offers fun activities for the staff to engage in after hours, such as the July 4th Freedom Festival celebration where friends and family can watch the fireworks from the best seats in Detroit."

"What makes the Chamber Cool? How about regularly scheduled training sessions on a multitude of topics or 'lunch & learns' on self-help topics or diversity. Our fitness challenges pump you up and the on-site workout room makes it easy to participate. The fitness classes at the end of the day don't exactly add on pounds either. The staff at the Chamber are welcoming, friendly and we are passionate about what we do."  - Bruce Heatley

"The Detroit Regional Chamber is a very cool place to work. First: our space is cool.. When I give people tours, they marvel at the artwork, the view, the fitness center and other amenities. But the Chamber is cool because we all respect each other and that respect comes from the top. As a member of the Diversity Council, Crisis Management Team and Staff Focus Group, I know first hand that the Chamber always has the employee in mind - and we do want to make the Chamber a great place to work."

"I feel the organization is committed to helping me succeed and is genuinely interested in my professional development. I feel a sense of belonging and fulfillment...and that's something nice to take home with me at the end of the day."

"I only work six months of the year, which in many ways is terrific. As great as it is to be off, I find myself anxious to get back in the Fall. The reason is - I love the people I work with. It's not just a job. We have a good time, and people here really care about one another."

"The mission of the Chamber is important to me. It is to influence changes in business climate issues in such a way that companies and firms located here are able to make a profit and grow, increase the number of jobs and support their communities."

"The best thing about the Chamber to me is that we're not just making widgets; we're working on the important issues of the day! We're playing a leadership role in education, regional transit and economic development. When I started at the Chamber I was struck by the fact that as a Chamber staffer, I had access and working relationships with high-level people that I would never have gotten to know had I been working in a typical company or organization."

"Having worked in different organizations - public, private, for-profit and non-profit - I have experienced different management styles and working environments. They all proclaimed to be progressive, employee oriented, encouraging teamwork, and other supporting other positive attributes. To date, only the Chamber has actually lived up to those claims and continues to improve the overall environment. This selection and, most importantly, our environment is something to be proud of and to continue to build upon." - Dean Johnson

"For me, coming from a corporate background, I enjoy the level of communication and the Chamber's constant effort to make this a better place to work i.e.: Diversity Council, Wellness Plan, Fitness Center, Tuition Reimbursement etc. Everyone here has a common interest in making other co-workers comfortable and happy. They have a smile on their face and are always willing to help. For me that make the Chamber a great place to work."

"The Chamber is a great place to work because it promotes freedom of expression. The Chamber environment encourages and provides the resources and support to implement new ideas."

"I don't know of very many companies where their employees enjoy so many excellent benefits. We have excellent PTO, tuition reimbursement, fitness room, paid insurance, diversity & spirit team initiatives, just to name a few." - Angela Ladetto

"What I truly like best about the Chamber is the feeling that we are all part of a family -- that we are a team working together for a common goal. There is a friendly, nurturing atmosphere here that I have not found in other places where I have worked over the years."

"The Chamber promotes employee morale through the Wellness Program, staff recognition program and employee appreciation days, which makes coming to work a more pleasurable experience."

"Healthy approaches, team concepts and embracing diversity are the key factors. These factors in summary--are inclusive and provide added value for staff and our members."

"The Chamber is a cool place to work due to the following reasons: friendly atmosphere, work-out facility and regular competitions, nice environment, medical and vacation benefits and flex-time availability."

"In addition to having a great benefits package, the Chamber constantly looks for new ways to help its employees. Support begins in the workplace with great office space and workout facility and continues through travel and insurance discounts."

"There are so many reasons why the Detroit Regional Chamber is a cool place to work that it is hard to know where to begin. For me, personally, perhaps the No. 1 reason is the Chamber's dedication to helping all of us balance our work life with our private life. Generous vacation and personal-time policies give us a great opportunity to 're-charge our batteries' and come back to the office refreshed and ready to give our very best. I also appreciate the Chamber's diversity program. A lot of companies pay lip service to diversity, but the Chamber really practices what it preaches."

"As a female and a minority I can truly say the Detroit Regional Chamber is a great place to work. There are no glass ceilings here."

"I would have to say the Chamber is a cool place to work because of the atmosphere that has been set from the top down. I have worked for companies in my time and I can say that not many give you the freedom to do what you do best. Of course we have rules and guidelines that we all adhere to just like any other company. It is the Chamber's approach to treating you like an adult that makes this a cool place to work." - Paul Sherwood
