HIGHLANDS RANCH, CO (June 16, 2025) — Calibre Engineering has been named one of Zweig Group’s 2025 Best Firms To Work For, earning a remarkable #2 ranking in the 50–99 Employees category and #5 in the Multi-Discipline category. This prestigious award honors outstanding AEC workplaces across the United States and Canada. Winners were recognized not only for their commitment to the employee experience but also for setting a new standard for culture, leadership, and organizational health in the AEC industry.

 

This year’s placement marks Calibre’s third consecutive year in the Top 10—a powerful reflection of the firm’s unwavering commitment to its people. From transparent leadership and inclusive culture to award-winning communications and professional development, Calibre continues to lead with purpose.

 

“Reaching #2 in Zweig’s Best Firms is an incredible honor,” said Brian Stephens-Hotopp, Vice President of Engineering. “But what makes us most proud is that this recognition is based on the voices of our team. Being ranked in the Top 10 for three straight years shows that we’re not just building great projects—we’re building a great place for our people to develop in their careers, be a part of a company providing rewarding work, and thrive in the community we’re striving to build.”

  

Each year, Zweig Group evaluates firms through a combination of a corporate practices survey and an anonymous employee survey—the largest of its kind in the AEC industry. With more than two million data points gathered annually, the Best Firms To Work For list highlights firms that prioritize employee satisfaction, engagement, and long-term success.

 

“The firms honored this year demonstrate what it looks like to invest in people in a meaningful, measurable way,” said Chad Clinehens, president and CEO of Zweig Group. “Their commitment to creating environments where employees feel valued and empowered is what drives innovation, retention, and long-term success.”

 

Winners will be honored at a black-tie gala during the 2025 ElevateAEC Conference in San Antonio, Texas, September 9–11.
