Camarda Financial Advisors, Inc.

"The firm has built a new $5 million headquarters, and a $3 million building in Ponte Vedra, that give us a first-class workplace and a marble-and-mahogany showcase to do business.  I really have fun.  Working for Camarda is a blast.  I've been in this business 25 years, and I've never been happier or felt better about what I do. There's an enthusiasm and spirit in the air that's electric and spurs us all on."

"I've been here since '98, and can't tell you how happy I am to have made the switch from a mega-financial like John Hancock.  I'm able to use easy systems that do a first-class job for clients, and making more money with less work than I ever dreamed possible.  I love the client appreciation events and the monthly employee get-togethers - and how the owners really care about me and take care of my family and me.  It really drives me to produce more for me - and for them. They really give us a chance to get close. They care about it, and realize it is not only right but good business. There's a real family feeling through the whole company that's actually gotten stronger as we've grown."

"The company's always been there to help out when I needed them.  That builds a lot of loyalty."

"We are a dynamic family company that is constantly changing and growing... everyone has an important role within the firm and is recognized and rewarded for their efforts and achievements as they strive to work toward a common goal of making Camarda the best!"

"Camarda allows me to use my experience as well as my education in ways no other employer has in the past. The career upside is unlimited because of the company's rapid growth. I believe I can rise to levels impossible elsewhere, and that's exhilirating."

"Camarda is, quite frankly, the firm I intend to grow with for the remainder of my long career...it's the environment I've been seeking since my days at Annapolis and MIT.  In the past, my employers always seemed to be lacking in several key areas, but Camarda has the total package, organizationally - intimate, cordial, collegial, respectful, disciplined, engaged, well-led, team-like, and fulfilling - where from day ONE you're embraced as though you're a founding member of the firm.  Bureaucratic, it's NOT; but entrepreneurial and motivating, it IS.  I feel eminently lucky to have found them."

"Camarda has helped me to grow tremendously both personally and professionally through its emphasis on continuing education and developing individual strengths. The high energy and positive corporate culture have been instrumental in allowing me to reach my full potential."
