What This Recognition Means
Looking Ahead
The Best and Brightest Companies to Work For award recognizes companies that go above and beyond in building dynamic, inclusive, and supportive workplaces. We’re honored to once again stand alongside organizations committed to putting their people first.
The Best and Brightest program evaluates organizations based on key areas of employee experience, including:
These criteria reflect the kind of workplace we’re proud to build at Ergoseal — one that supports long-term growth, values every team member, and encourages everyone to thrive.
At Ergoseal, we’ve always believed that great products start with great people — and that belief continues to guide how we build and support our team. We’re proud to have a workforce that includes both long-tenured experts and new team members who bring fresh energy and perspective.
Our culture is rooted in respect, collaboration, and a shared commitment to continuous improvement. We work hard, solve tough challenges together, and create space for people to grow in their roles and careers. It’s a place where contributions are recognized, where ideas are valued, and where people genuinely enjoy the work they do — and who they do it with.
We also believe that being a great place to work means making a positive impact beyond our walls. Ergoseal proudly supports local food drives in the Chicago area and provides hands-on learning opportunities through our internship partnership with the DuPage County Work-based Learning Consortium. These efforts reflect our values and give team members the opportunity to give back in meaningful ways.
This award reflects more than just strong HR practices — it affirms the kind of culture that’s been intentionally built and sustained at Ergoseal over time. As COO Chris Verni explains:
“Winning the Best & Brightest Companies to Work For award for the sixth year in a row is a powerful reflection of the culture we've built at Ergoseal. It shows that our commitment to our people and this recognition affirms that when we invest in our team, we all win."
This recognition is a testament to the daily efforts of the entire team — from the manufacturing floor to the engineering bench to leadership — and a signal that what we're building together truly stands out.
As we continue to grow, we remain committed to building a workplace where people feel empowered to do their best work — and supported in every step of their journey. This award is a reflection of our team, our values, and the culture we’ve created together.
