CLA Named Among America's Best Workplaces

CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen, LLP) has been named to the inaugural 2025 America’s Best Workplaces Award list by the Best Companies Group in partnership with BridgeTower Media.

America’s Best Workplaces Awards identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment across the United States. It is a celebration of excellence in company culture that honors numerous employers and ranks the Top 10 workplaces in small, medium and large business categories. Winners were previously recognized by Best Companies Group in at least one other data-driven recognition program.

“We take great pride in our culture at CLA, and the way it truly differentiates us not only in accounting and professional services, but among firms and companies across the U.S.,” said Cathy Clarke, CLA’s Chief Culture Officer. “Being recognized as one of America’s Best Workplaces is a testament to the way our CLA family shows up every day, living our promise to our clients to know you and help you.”

The rankings were determined using Best Companies Group’s algorithm, which includes data from each nominated company's workplace policies, practices and demographics, as well as data from an employee survey that measured the employee experience. The overall scores determined which workplaces were recognized and which were ranked in the top of their category.

“These workplaces are America’s best—not because we say so, but because their people do,” said Jaime Raul Zepeda, executive vice president of Best Companies Group + COLOR Magazine. “At Best Companies Group, we’re excited to certify this honor and celebrate these standout employers with millions of business leaders who trust BridgeTower Media for the pulse on exceptional companies across the country.”

CLA, named as a top workplace in the large company category, is one of the nation’s largest accounting and professional services firms, with nearly 9,000 professionals located in 130 offices across the U.S. and the UK. Deeply entrenched in communities throughout the country, CLA provides accounting and professional services across the business spectrum, from start-up to sale, from individual tax planning and preparation to extensive wealth advisory, digital solutions, audit and outsourcing services.
