DENVER, Colo. (May 2, 2025) – PCL Construction Enterprises, Inc. has been named one of Denver Business Journal’s 2025 Best Places to Work, ranking No. 2 in the “Giants” category. Rankings are based on anonymous survey results measuring key indicators such as trust in leadership, team engagement, communication and workplace satisfaction.
This recognition comes on the heels of PCL’s inclusion on the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® list, marking the 16th time the company has earned that honor—reinforcing its strong commitment to cultivating an exceptional workplace culture.
“Being named a DBJ Best Place to Work reinforces what we’ve long believed—that when you invest in people, great things follow,” said Ryan Schmidt, vice president and district manager for PCL’s Denver office. “Relationships are at the core of everything we do at PCL, and that includes our relationship with our employees. We’re focused on creating a culture where every team member feels supported, challenged and empowered to lead.”
Over the past year, PCL celebrated the completion of The Russell, a transit-oriented residential community contributing to the revitalization of Olde Town Arvada, and broke ground on the Klein Facility Enhancement project—an innovative effort by the South Adams County Water and Sanitation District to support safe, reliable drinking water for thousands of residents. The company also launched Value Every Voice, a safety campaign empowering all workers to speak about potential hazards up on job sites. The result: an industry-leading safety record with zero lost time incidents.
From mentorship and career development through its College of Construction, to benefits like wellness reimbursements, complimentary therapy sessions through Lyra Health, and breast milk shipping support for traveling mothers, the company is focused on the whole employee experience.
“Our people are our greatest asset,” said Mauricio Ramos, vice president and district manager for PCL’s Denver office. “Recognition, career growth and shared ownership aren’t perks—they’re foundational to how we operate.”
As PCL looks to the future, its focus remains on innovation and delivering meaningful work across the Denver metro community. As a 100% employee-owned company, this recognition reflects a people-first culture rooted in respect, collaboration and shared success.
