KWC has been named as one of the 2026 Best Places to Work for Career Growth. The awards recognize the top companies for career development and advancement opportunities across the United States. The awards are held in partnership with Best Companies Group.

Best Places to Work for Career Growth is a survey-based competition that recognizes companies excelling in providing employees with meaningful career development, clear advancement pathways, and professional growth opportunities. Eligible companies launched a survey process with Best Companies Group in the last year. Survey data was analyzed and compared across all participants, with a focus on the experiences of employees regarding career growth and development within each company. Winners were selected based on this comparative analysis.

“The Best Places to Work for Career Growth winners demonstrate exceptional leadership in employee development and career advancement. These workplaces create environments where employees have clear pathways to grow professionally and achieve their full potential,” said Jaime Raul Zepeda, executive vice president of Best Companies Group + COLOR Magazine. “At Best Companies Group, we are proud to certify this honor that recognizes employers committed to investing in their talent. Congratulations to all the winners.”
