In their own words
“Ridgemont is a construction management firm delivering quality constructed projects in the automotive, health care, industrial, office, retail and senior living market segments in Texas and the surrounding region since 1976," says Jason Lillard, president and principal.
About the culture
Ridgemont promotes health and wellness with healthy snacks, a gym, boot camps, yoga classes and massage therapy. Twice a year, Ridgemont sits down with the whole staff to discuss company performance, listen to suggestions for improvement and design a strategy to accomplish goals.
Employees say
"I am not just a number at Ridgemont. The culture here is such that everyone is important and everyone is heard. This is a place of working hard and playing hard. It's the best place I've ever worked."
"I have a solid career path."
"Ridgemont is very family-oriented. I am able to maintain my personal and professional schedules without question from my managers as long as I take care of all of my business. My efforts are appreciated, and I am able to learn at my own pace. I interact with the upper management staff daily, and they take the time to know each employee and listen to our concerns."
Good works
Ridgemont launched an annual bass fishing tournament this year to raise money for the Wounded Warriors Project.
