Granite has been named by Forbes as one of America’s Best Midsize Employers for the fifth year in a row. The ranking honors employers based on an independent survey asking how likely employees would be to recommend their employer – and other employers in their respective industries – to someone else.
“To be recognized for the fifth time as one of America’s Best Midsize Employers is an honor and reflection of our culture here at Granite,” said Senior Vice President of Human Resources Tim Gruber. “This designation is made possible by each member of the Granite team and their unwavering dedication to excellence. Despite the extraordinary challenges we have faced this past year, our people have continued to foster a culture that promotes inclusion and integrity.”
Forbes, in partnership with Statista.com, conducted an anonymous survey with a sample of more than 50,000 employees belonging to institutions comprised of more than 1,000 employees in the United States, across 25 different industries. The scores are calculated based on participants’ direct and indirect recommendations as well as their opinions of other work-related topics such as working conditions, potential for development and their company’s response to COVID-19.
Granite is well-known as one of the largest diversified construction and construction materials companies in the United States as well as a full-suite provider in the transportation, water infrastructure, and mineral exploration markets.
