OBMI is honored to announce the firm has been recognized in Zweig Group‘s “Best Firms to Work For” in the Architecture category and 7th overall for firms with 1-199 employees for 2024. The award highlights outstanding workplaces in the AEC industry based on statistics and employee opinion on firm culture, workplace practice, professional development, and more. Through this survey, the Zweig Group aims to provide prospective employees with essential data. This data can be used as an industry-specific benchmarking tool that can be referenced to reveal what the employee experience looks like at today’s top AEC firms.

“OBMI is thrilled to be recognized by our staff and industry experts with the award of Best Firms to Work for in 2024. We thank the Zweig Group for the opportunity to add this designation to our firm’s story,“ says Mauro Comoli, Managing Director and Principal. “We are overjoyed to hear that the team feels valued, appreciates our office culture, and recognizes that we have invested in benefits that contribute to their lives inside and outside work.“

OBMI experienced exponential growth in 2023 that continued through the first portion of 2024, none of which would have been possible without the team’s support and determination. The firm had a 20% increase in overall employee growth and announced the opening of new offices in London and Egypt. We are continuously grateful for the OBMI team’s commitment to design excellence, professional development, and teamwork.

This year, the OBMI leadership team has emphasized strengthening leadership and positivity skills throughout the firm, creating an invaluable experience for employees to learn about these topics and grow together. OBMI’s corporate social responsibility team endorsed a program to decrease employee stress levels and prioritize mental health with complimentary unlimited memberships to Calm. The organization also offers employees a competitive benefits package with 401(k) matching, employer-covered health care coverage with dental benefits, and more.

We have strived to create an environment where our people feel valued and supported, and their work contributes to the firm’s overall success.
