Tighe & Bond recognized by Zweig Group

Westfield, MA Based on the survey results of its 2018 Best Firms To Work For Ranking, Zweig Group recently named Tighe & Bond one of the best civil engineering firms to work for in the nation. This annual awards competition is based on business practice data collected from numerous participating firms across the country, including feedback solicited through an employee survey. 

This award recognizes the top firms leading the way in creating a work place that inspires, motivates and rewards employees.

The competitive ranking that results is based on comprehensive evaluations of factors such as firm culture and workplace practices, employee benefits, career development and growth opportunities, compensation, performance and recognition, as well as recruiting and retention rates. All firms that apply for this prestigious ranking and recognition are evaluated against each other, not a set standard. 

“Zweig Group has recognized Tighe & Bond numerous times as one of the best engineering firms to work for in the nation, and it is always a significant honor. It also exemplifies our ongoing commitment to create a working environment where all employees feel valued, and where they can see their contribution to the overall mission and success of the firm and our clients,” said Tighe & Bond’s president and CEO David Pinsky. “Our ability to recruit, develop, and retain the most talented staff is crucial to providing the high quality, responsive services that our clients have come to expect and deserve,” he adds.

 Zweig Group will recognize Tighe & Bond, along with the other best firm winners, during the 2018 Zweig Group Hot Firm + A/E Industry Awards Conference this month. This is the industry’s largest and most comprehensive business conference for leaders of architectural/engineering/construction (AEC) firms in the U.S.
