For the 11th consecutive year, Sargent & Lundy has been named a Top Workplace by the Chicago Tribune, securing the No. 7 ranking among Chicago companies with over 1,000 employees.
The honor reflects anonymous employee feedback gathered in June by Energage, a Pennsylvania‑based research firm whose benchmarked methodology powers the national and regional Top Workplaces lists. Employees reported higher scores related to feeling informed about company decisions and having work-life flexibility – clear signals of progress in areas employees value most.
Sargent & Lundy’s consistent presence on the Chicago Tribune Top Workplace list highlights its dedication to fostering a supportive, high-performance culture. The firm’s commitment to gathering and acting on employee feedback has led to several benefits enhancements, more channels for idea-sharing, and new workplace enrichments.
Demonstrating this continuous-improvement culture, the firm has achieved significant accolades. Sargent & Lundy has swept the Top Workplaces Culture Excellence Awards for the past three years, earning recognition for excellence in compensation and benefits, innovation, leadership, purpose and values, and work-life flexibility. The firm has also secured awards for employee appreciation, employee well-being, and professional development.
This success is part of a broader track record: The firm has been a Top Workplaces USA honoree every year since the award began in 2021 and has earned regional Top Workplace honors from The Delaware News Journal and The Denver Post.
Employees’ comments from the survey highlight the day-to-day experience behind the scores.
Sargent & Lundy is growing and hiring across the U.S. and internationally, with more than 1,000 open roles for engineers, designers, project managers, and professional staff.
