PulteGroup Recognized Among 2025 Best Workplaces in Construction
PulteGroup, Inc. , America’s third-largest homebuilding company and one of the most trusted names in residential development, has once again earned a spot on the highly regarded Fortune Best Workplaces in Construction™ list for 2025. Compiled in collaboration between Fortune Media and Great Place To Work®, the recognition reflects PulteGroup’s sustained commitment to cultivating a thriving workplace environment for its people. This year, PulteGroup proudly placed 4th in the large company category, securing its position as one of the top employers in the construction sector for the third consecutive year.
The achievement comes on the heels of a remarkable 2024, a year in which the company reported record-breaking results in both build quality and customer satisfaction. By combining operational excellence with a steadfast focus on its people, PulteGroup continues to raise the bar for workplace culture in an industry known for its demanding schedules and competitive landscape.
Building More Than Homes: A Culture of Excellence
Commenting on the recognition, Matt Koart, Chief Operating Officer of PulteGroup, expressed deep pride in the company’s accomplishment.
“We are incredibly proud to be recognized for the third consecutive year on Fortune’s Best Workplaces in Construction list,” said Koart. “This honor reflects the exceptional dedication of our entire team, especially our field teams, including construction managers, sales consultants, and customer care professionals, whose daily commitment to excellence drives both our record-breaking performance and our outstanding workplace culture. Our people don’t just build homes; they build careers, communities, and a company culture that sets the standard in our industry.”
PulteGroup’s approach to business goes beyond traditional homebuilding. Its teams operate on the principle that building homes is not just about physical structures but also about creating lasting impact — for families, communities, and the people who make those projects possible. The company invests heavily in employee growth and well-being, emphasizing leadership development, career advancement, and work-life balance. This philosophy ensures that employees across all roles — from construction crews to corporate staff — feel valued, supported, and empowered.
How the Best Workplaces Are Determined
The Best Workplaces in Construction list is one of the most competitive workplace awards in the country. The honor is not simply about profitability or business performance but centers on the employee experience. The evaluation process is overseen by Great Place To Work®, the global authority on workplace culture, which certifies thousands of organizations each year using its rigorous Trust Index™ Survey.
For the 2025 list, Great Place To Work analyzed nearly 54,000 survey responses from employees working at certified companies in the construction sector. The survey is part of America’s largest ongoing annual workforce study, incorporating data from over 1.3 million individual employee responses across companies representing more than 8.4 million workers nationwide.
Key survey measures include trust in leadership, respect among colleagues, fairness in opportunities, and pride in the work performed. Honorees are chosen based on their ability to deliver consistently positive experiences for employees across all job roles, genders, races, sexual orientations, work statuses, and other demographic identifiers.
Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work, highlighted why the recognition matters not only for individual companies but for the future of the industry.
“Congratulations to the Best Workplaces in Construction,” Bush said. “In every industry, our research shows that investing in people drives productivity and higher revenues. When trust levels are high in an organization, people don’t fear AI — they embrace it. Companies like PulteGroup prove that focusing on people leads directly to better results.”
A Year of Recognition Across Industries
PulteGroup’s consistent presence on workplace culture lists underscores the company’s long-term investment in its employees and its reputation as a leading employer of choice. In addition to the 2025 Best Workplaces in Construction™ honor, the company was also recognized this year on the 2025 PEOPLE Companies That Care® list, highlighting organizations that demonstrate exceptional social responsibility, empathy, and employee care.
Further cementing its standing, PulteGroup has been named multiple times to Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For®, one of the most prestigious workplace culture lists in the country. In 2024, the company also earned a place on the Fortune Best Workplaces for Millennials™ and the Fortune Best Workplaces for Women™ lists, reflecting its commitment to fostering inclusivity and opportunities for all demographics across the workforce.
These accolades demonstrate that PulteGroup is not only excelling in construction excellence but also actively shaping a workplace where employees can thrive in an industry that has historically struggled to attract and retain talent.
Why Workplace Recognition Matters in Construction
The construction sector is undergoing rapid transformation, shaped by labor shortages, technological advancements, and evolving expectations of employees and customers alike. In this climate, being recognized as a top workplace is a powerful differentiator. Workers seek not only stable employment but also meaningful careers with employers who prioritize safety, development, and culture.
PulteGroup’s recognition signals to current and prospective employees that the company is committed to providing more than a paycheck. It offers long-term career pathways, an environment where innovation is encouraged, and a culture where employees’ contributions are celebrated. This approach not only enhances employee retention but also translates into higher-quality homes and stronger customer relationships.
PulteGroup’s Vision for the Future
As the company looks toward 2025 and beyond, it remains focused on sustaining its growth trajectory while deepening its investments in people and communities. Initiatives around sustainability, advanced building practices, and customer-first strategies will remain priorities. At the same time, PulteGroup is actively exploring how technology — including digital tools and AI — can further support its teams in delivering exceptional results without compromising the human element that defines its culture.
Koart emphasized that these achievements are only possible because of the people who bring the company’s mission to life every day.
“Our field teams are the heart of what we do. Their skill, dedication, and passion ensure that every home we build meets the highest standards. As we continue to grow, our focus will always remain on building not just homes, but opportunities for our people and trust with our customers.”
