ORC has been named a 2026 USA TODAY Top Workplaces award winner—an honor that reflects what matters most: the voices of its people.
Based entirely on employee feedback, the national recognition highlights organizations that are building strong, people-first cultures where employees feel valued, heard, and empowered to succeed.
A Culture Built on Listening
At ORC, culture isn’t just a concept, it’s something actively shaped by employee experience.
“This recognition is especially meaningful because it comes directly from our employees,” said Steve Toth, CEO of ORC. “We are intentional about creating an environment where our people feel supported, heard, and empowered to do their best work every day.”
The award is based on confidential survey results gathered by Energage – measuring key workplace experience themes proven to drive engagement and performance. ORC’s results reflect a consistent focus on communication, trust, and opportunity.
Recognized on a National Stage
The USA TODAY Top Workplaces program honors organizations with 150 or more employees that prioritize a strong workplace culture. This year, more than 42,000 companies were invited to participate.
Winners were recognized nationally by USA TODAY and celebrated at the Top Workplaces National Awards Summit in Las Vegas, joining a group of organizations committed to putting people first.
Energage CEO Eric Rubino noted that the award represents more than recognition – it signals credibility, trust, and a workplace where employees truly believe in their organization.
Investing in People, Every Day
This recognition builds on ORC’s long-standing commitment to its people, through professional development, inclusive practices, and a culture that encourages growth and collaboration.
With more than 55 years of experience supporting complex infrastructure projects, ORC continues to invest in the people behind that work, knowing that strong teams are what drive meaningful results for clients and communities alike.
