At the heart of The Turner Group’s success is a culture of inclusion, innovation, and listening. All employees, whether part-time or full-time, have access to robust benefits that include health, dental, life insurance (the firm covers 100% of premiums for employees), disability coverage, and a 401(k) with company match. There is no minimum number of hours required for benefit eligibility.

Flexible scheduling is one of the company’s most valued offerings, allowing employees to balance work with family life and personal responsibilities. Whether it’s remote work supported by secure VPN access or the ability to attend a child’s event without missing a beat, Turner recognizes that work-life balance isn’t just a perk but a necessity.

Employee development and recognition is embedded in the culture through programs like the High Five Recognition peer supported program, Employee of the Month, and personal development discussions. Employees are empowered to grow through mentoring, job shadowing, and in-house leadership development.

Transparency drives engagement at Turner. The firm practices open-book management, regularly sharing financial and project performance data with employees. Employee-driven improvements are the norm at Turner. This includes implementing a new CRM system and project management platform to organizing firm-wide CPR/First Aid certifications and initiating jobsite visits.

Appreciation at Turner is constant, personal and impactful. From Amazon gift cards and additional vacation time on milestone anniversaries to a discretionary profit-sharing program and generous PTO policies (up to 200 hours), the company goes out of its way to make sure its employees feel seen.

“Compassion guides our interactions, inspiring acts of kindness and empathy within our team and beyond,” says President William Hickey.
