Cambridge Investments & Research issued the following announcement on Sept. 14.

Cambridge is proud to be a Top Workplace1 in Iowa for the 10th consecutive year. Sponsored by The Des Moines Register, the 2020 Top Workplaces award ranked Cambridge seventh among the large companies that employ more than 500 associates. Cambridge is one of only six organizations that have been named a Top Workplace in Iowa every year since the award’s inception in 2011.

“We are honored to be selected as a Top Workplace in Iowa by our associates for the tenth consecutive year,” said President and CEO, Amy Webber. “Through these unprecedented times, our associates have displayed our core values of integrity, commitment, flexibility and kindness every day as they serve independent financial professionals and their clients.”

In addition to being a Top Workplace for the 10th time, Cambridge is also Broker-Dealer of the Year2 for the 13th time based on voting by the independent financial professionals choosing Cambridge to support their efforts as they serve their clients.

“We know that our associates are among our most valuable assets, and with them, we are making a difference with our financial professionals and their investing clients,” said Webber. “It is rewarding to receive this positive feedback and we offer our heartfelt thanks to our associates.”

1The Top Workplace in Iowa recognition is determined by associate feedback through an anonymous survey conducted by Energage, an independent research company. The survey is focused on three critical aspects of the workplace: engagement – an assessment of how associates feel about working at the company overall, organizational health – an assessment of the fundamentals of the company, and satisfaction – an assessment of the day-to-day job.
