EDR is proud to be named one of Zweig Group’s 2025 Best Firms to Work For, a prestigious award honoring outstanding AEC workplaces across the United States and Canada. Honorees are recognized for their commitment to the employee experience and for setting a new standard for culture, leadership, and organizational health in the AEC industry.
This recognition highlights EDR’s ongoing commitment to fostering a workplace culture rooted in trust, growth, and employee well-being, while also reflecting our broader mission to create a better, more sustainable environment for our employees, clients, and communities. EDR was recognized in the Multidisciplinary category based on workplace practices, employee benefits, retention rates, and direct employee feedback.
“We’re honored to be recognized as one of the 2025 Best Firms to Work For,” said Jo Anne Gagliano, president of EDR. “This recognition reflects our team’s passion, creativity, and commitment to making EDR an exceptional place to work. We’ve worked intentionally to build a culture where employees feel valued, supported, and inspired to make a meaningful impact, not just within our firm, but in the communities we serve, and in shaping a more sustainable future. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved together.”
Firms were evaluated based on a combined score from two surveys: a corporate survey assessing policies and practices, and an anonymous employee survey capturing feedback on engagement, satisfaction, and culture. Best Firms To Work For is built on the largest employee survey in the AEC industry, drawing on more than 2 million data points annually.
