HOUSTON, March 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Great Place to Work and FORTUNE have honored Venterra Realty as one of the 2018 Best Workplaces in Texas. The ranking considered more than 28,000 employee surveys from companies across the Lone Star state. Great Place to Work, a research and consulting firm, evaluated more than 50 elements of team members’ experience on the job. These included employee pride in the organization’s community impact, belief that their work makes a difference, and feeling their work has special meaning.

"This success has only been possible by having caring, dedicated and passionate employees who believe in the Venterra vision and bring it to life every day. I feel incredibly privileged and thankful to work with such an amazing group of employees who get up every day focused on making Venterra a better place to live and work," said Richard Roos, Venterra Realty COO.
