Members of the Consigli team celebrated the award at an event on December 4, where the company was also recognized as one of the longest-running companies on the annual list.

Each year, companies and workplaces across Massachusetts are recognized by The Boston Globe as Top Places to Work based on employee feedback captured through surveys. The survey measures employee opinions about their company’s direction, execution, connection, management, work, pay and benefits, and engagement. The employers are placed into one of four groups: small (50-99 employees); medium (100-249 employees); large (250-999 employees); and largest (1,000 or more employees).

This recognition in the large employers category was earned through Consigli’s commitment to fostering a strong culture, generous benefits and opportunities for development for its employees. A 100% employee-owned (ESOP) company since 2018, in addition to resources that support the physical and mental health of employees and their families, Consigli also provides its people with a direct benefit of its success.

Additionally, Consigli offers 24 hours of paid volunteer time, generous 401K matching, fitness reimbursement and wellness incentives, summer Fridays, parental leave and a culture that encourages work life balance. Various Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) also work collaboratively and thoughtfully to foster a diverse, equitable and inclusive environment for all employees.

Consigli has been consistently named a Top Place to Work regionally in Maine, Connecticut, New York and Washington, D.C., and has previously been recognized nationally as a Forbes Best Employer.

The largest academic project in Colby College history, and the campus’ new home for music, cinema studies and performance, theater and dance departments, the 74,000 sq. ft. Gordon Center serves as one of the most advanced and innovative performing arts facilities in New England. To achieve the Gordon Center’s innovative design, complete with highly specialized acoustical treatments able to adapt to multiple disciplines and performance types, Consigli collaborated closely with the design team and performed meticulous quality assurance work to ensure that the Center’s performance spaces met design specifications and standards.

Completed on a busy, occupied campus and sited on bedrock that required blasting in a heavily-trafficked area to install foundations and utilities, Consigli exceeded jobsite safety standards and prioritized the protection of the Colby College community through extensive safety planning and constant communication with students and faculty.

Leveraging its in-house resources and expertise, Consigli enlisted both its proven pre-fabrication approach to streamline delivery and minimize on-site work during inclement weather, as well as its self-perform division to perform the installation of the building’s custom limestone façade and parts of the acoustic panel installation.

Consigli and its energy division, Arch Energy, have worked collaboratively with project partners to rapidly electrify 345 Hudson by replacing steam and natural gas systems. Using proven, innovative technologies from Electric.nyc, Phase 1 will enable renewable energy within the existing building infrastructure and replace outdated systems powered by steam and natural gas with smart electric-powered systems. Leveraging these new systems, 345 Hudson and adjacent buildings will be connected through micro-grids to create shared, efficient and circular heating and cooling.

Once complete, 345 Hudson’s retrofit is expected to reduce emissions by at least 70 percent and support compliance with New York City’s Local Law 97, which mandates large buildings significantly reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.

Developed by Hudson Square Properties (HSP), a collaboration between Hines, Trinity Church Wall Street, and Norges Bank, the award-winning project received NYSERDA’s first Empire Building Challenge grant to support decarbonization efforts.

Members of the Consigli and Arch Energy teams, alongside project partners, received the award at a Nov. 12 celebration hosted by ENR.

“High school internships are an important resource for employers and students alike, offering both the construction workforce and young learners with a strong foundation on which to build the next generation of industry leaders,” said Laura Bush, Consigli Construction Co., Inc. Regional Director – NYC Metro Region. “As my own interest in a career in construction was inspired by a high school internship opportunity, I know firsthand the transformative experience that early exposure and engagement can have on a student’s future, and Consigli was proud to serve as a partner in this impactful program.”

Consigli previously partnered in 2023 with the Bronx High School of Science to provide high school students with internships on its Stanley Manne ’52 Institute of Science project, one of the first fully electrified laboratory buildings in New York City.

“Our partnership with Consigli Construction through the Industry Scholars Program exemplifies the power of collaboration between NYC Public Schools and industry leaders. These collaborations provide our students with invaluable opportunities to engage directly with industry professionals, gaining not only technical skills but also the confidence and inspiration to pursue their career aspirations,” said Jade Grieve, Chief of Student Pathways for NYC Public Schools. “We are grateful for Consigli’s commitment to mentoring and guiding our students, helping to shape the next generation of leaders in the construction industry.”

Amari Young and Abner Rodriguez, both students at the Bronx Design & Construction Academy, worked alongside and learned from the Consigli project management and field operations teams on two active construction projects: 4650 Broadway and Columbia University’s 611 West 112^th Street renovation. They built on their CTE curriculum, including carpentry and pre-engineering and architectural drafting pathways, with hands-on learning and skills-building on the jobsite.

“We are very proud of the impact the Industry Scholars Program has on New York City students, and it is because of partnerships with companies like Consigli that the program is so successful. This summer, students Amari and Abner had the opportunity to be deeply involved in real-world construction projects, with the guidance and mentorship of their onsite supervisors,” said Doug Cotter, CEO of Grant Associates. “Work-based learning experiences like this are often life-changing for youth, and we deeply appreciate Consigli’s partnership. The hands-on experience, technical knowledge, and professional skills these students gained are invaluable as they pursue careers in construction. This collaboration exemplifies our shared commitment to preparing the next generation of industry leaders in New York City.”

Launched in 2016, the Industry Scholars Program offers industry-specific paid career-connected learning programs aimed at helping high school students apply knowledge from the classroom to real-world work experience. Operated by Grant Associates, the NYC Public School’s Industry Scholars Program connects employers with Career & Technical Education (CTE) and Future Ready (FRNYC) high school students to advance their education and career aspirations to help build the future of New York City’s workforce.

Members of the project team, Naomi Doddington and Jack Trainor, collaborated with architect SmithGroup to co-author an article that highlighted Consigli’s meticulous historic preservation work and extensive adaptive reuse that transformed one of Washington, D.C.’s oldest synagogues into a new, from-the-ground-up museum.

“This was a challenge, not only in terms of restoration but also in relation to the addition of structural systems and the creation of the water-tight environment needed for incorporation with the Museum. Careful restoration efforts ensured the synagogue could achieve appropriate museum standards, making it possible to create exhibition space on the first floor of this historic structure, and an engaging audiovisual exhibition on the second floor.”
