Turner Recognized Nationally for Culture of Care and Opportunity

Turner Construction Company has been named to the 2025 Forbes list of America’s Best Employers for Company Culture, a distinction that highlights the organization’s ongoing investment in fairness, inclusion, and employee support.

According to Forbes, the selection criteria evaluated workplace environments at companies with at least 1,000 employees. More than 218,000 full- and part-time workers participated in surveys that assessed culture, leadership, well-being, and overall satisfaction. Direct employee feedback, peer recommendations, insights from friends and family, and Statista’s research informed the rankings.

Turner, which employs more than 15,000 people, has built its reputation on what it calls a culture of “active caring.” This approach includes comprehensive mentorship opportunities, accessible mental health and wellness resources, and a suite of benefits tailored to the diverse needs of its workforce. The company’s Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) play a key role in advancing belonging, professional growth, and community across teams.

“Our success comes from our people,” said Tom Reilly, President of Turner Construction Company. “At Turner, we have built a workplace culture of active caring where people can be at their best, be authentic, and be treated with respect and dignity. We are deeply committed to the development, well-being, and aspirations of everyone in our company. We also offer outstanding opportunities for people who are open to exploration and challenges.”

The company says it is committed to creating an environment where employees can build long-term careers while making a difference in their field. Its philosophy centers on inclusion, empowerment, and advancement.

Turner notes that it strives to be a destination for individuals “who want to build, grow, and make a difference.” The company reiterates that it “put[s] people first and create[s] opportunities for every individual to reach their full potential.”

Beyond this latest accolade, Turner has been featured on numerous Forbes lists in recent years, including:

  • Best Employers for Women
  • Best Employers for New Graduates
  • Best Large Employers
  • America’s Dream Employers

The ongoing recognition underscores what industry observers describe as a sustained effort to support employees at every level. From apprentices to executives, Turner positions itself as a workplace rooted in respect, professional development, and access to opportunities.

This year’s Forbes honor reinforces that message and signals that Turner’s strategy around culture, talent retention, and inclusivity is resonating both internally and within the broader workforce market.
