For the fourth time in as many years, NJBIZ magazine has honored Berkeley College, with 24 other large (250 or more employees) and 25 medium-size (25 – 249 employees) New Jersey firms, as one of the “Best Places to Work in New Jersey.” The selection process was managed by Best Companies Group. Two-thirds of each company score was based on an employee survey and one-third from an employer survey that collected information about company benefits, policies and practices.
“To have Berkeley College recognized for the fourth consecutive year as one of the best places to work in New Jersey validates Berkeley’s commitment to creating a sense of community for both Berkeley associates and students,” says Kevin Luing, Chairman of the Board of Berkeley College. “It is both satisfying and gratifying to be ranked, once again, with the best companies in New Jersey. Berkeley College is committed to being a responsible member of the global community.”
“We offer special benefits to our more than 500 employees to attract and keep the best faculty and staff,” says Berkeley College Vice President of Human Resources Karen Carpentieri. “Some of these benefits include waiving tuition at Berkeley for employees and their dependents; an employee referral incentive program; a flexible spending account for out-of-pocket health and dependent care expenses; pet insurance; and a paid time off policy to help balance work and family life.”
