I can’t tell you how many times I have heard “ I feel like I have no control over my life, my job owns me” ... or some version of that sentiment. I used to be one of those countless employees who felt that pain every single day.
After years where lunch breaks were monitored to the minute, vacations were scoffed at, and office politics dictated your success, I knew it was time for me to take a risk. It was a big change there is no doubt about that, but I felt a sense of freedom and pride that I had never thought possible when I joined Keller Williams.
I make my own schedule, I drive my own success and I am part of an organization that understands how important both of those elements are to having a full life. Needless to say I have not looked back.
I feel proud everyday to be able to say I chose to be my own boss, take control of my time, my success and my life!!

The company is known for its profit-sharing system, its focus on training and—of course—the work/life balance employees are able to achieve.
“As an individual contractor you determine your work day,” says one employee, who also comments on the company’s training programs. “Each day offers learning and continuing education about culture and opportunities.”
These are the best places to work for work/life balance in 2018.
