The best workplaces are created by people who are invested in each other's success. Our employees challenge one another, support one another and continually look for ways to grow. Being recognized again is a testament to the environment they've helped create and sustain." |

In addition to being a Best Firm to Work For, Fehr Graham ranked No. 82 on the 2026 Zweig Group Hot Firm list, marking the firm's fifth consecutive and 11th overall appearance on the list. The list recognizes the fastest-growing AEC firms in the U.S. and Canada based on revenue growth over a three-year period.
Fehr Graham also recently made the Engineering News-Record (ENR) Top 500 Design Firms list for the fifth straight year, and the ENR's Midwest Top Design Firm list for the third straight year.
Founded in Freeport, Illinois, in 1973 by Al Fehr and Joe Graham, the firm has grown from five employees in one office to 260 people across 11 offices in three states. The firm's impressive growth in recent years has been driven by strategic acquisitions and a people-first culture that empowers employees to grow, lead and thrive.
