At ET Design-Build, we don’t just recognize this challenge—we’re meeting it head-on with a people-first approach and a long-standing culture that puts our team at the center of everything we do.
Understanding the Construction and Engineering Landscape
That’s where ET Design-Build stands out.
Retention That Tells a Story
How do we do it? It starts with a fundamental belief that our people are our greatest asset.
Whether someone is working on-site in Denver, coordinating logistics from Atlanta, or managing engineering scopes from one of our satellite offices across the country, every team member at ET plays a critical role. We make sure they know that we see that.
What We Offer (That Others Don’t)
We’ve worked hard to build a workplace where employees in our construction and engineering careers can thrive for the long haul. That means:
- A robust ESOP program that turns team members into owners
- Incentive compensation and sign-on bonuses that reward performance and dedication
- Flexible office structures that accommodate field-based work, hybrid models, and individual needs
- Hands-on project variety across three sectors—energy, environmental, and industrial—so cross-trained employees can share expertise and avoid burnout
- A true spirit of collaboration across jobsites and offices alike
As shared in The ET Design-Build Difference, we’re not just constructing facilities—we’re cultivating careers. Our superintendents, project managers, and engineers stick with us for a reason. Here, they’re empowered to make decisions, grow their expertise, and become future company leaders.
Why This Matters Now
In the past year, ET experienced record growth, and projections show that growth continuing. But with a bigger pipeline comes a greater responsibility to staff our teams with people who can uphold our standards of quality, safety, and client service. We’re investing in the tools, technology, and training to support that growth, and we’re investing in our people, too.
We’ve empowered more of our team members to take on new internal and external client-facing roles—creating opportunities for leadership, mentorship, and business development. We’re expanding our marketing efforts to showcase not just our projects, but the people behind them. And we’re creating more visibility around open roles and growth opportunities within the company.
