Geneseo, N.Y. (Oct. 22, 2026) — Best Companies Group has officially named Coast Professional, Inc. a recipient of the 2027 America’s Best Workplaces by Best Companies Group award. Presented in partnership with BridgeTower Media, this prestigious national initiative identifies, recognizes, and honors the premier places of employment across the United States.

The award celebrates excellence in company culture across small, medium, large, and enterprise business categories. To qualify for the national program, winners must have been previously recognized by Best Companies Group in at least one other data-driven workplace recognition program.

The definitive final rankings will be calculated using a proprietary algorithm managed by Best Companies Group. This evaluation synthesizes comprehensive data from each nominated organization’s workplace policies, practices, and demographics alongside direct feedback from a rigorous, confidential employee experience survey. The resulting scores determine which workplaces are honored and who ranks at the top of each category.

“The 2027 America’s Best Workplaces are truly special organizations. These employers know you can do well and good at the same time, and have built a people-first environment that helps everyone thrive,” said Jaime Raul Zepeda, executive vice president of Best Companies Group + COLOR Magazine. “At Best Companies Group, we are pleased to join with BridgeTower Media in celebrating these outstanding workplaces–the best of 2027.”

“Earning a spot among America’s Best Workplaces is an incredible milestone for the Coast team,” said Brent Henderson, Chief Human Resources Officer of Coast Professional, Inc. “As our company celebrates 50 years in business, we are constantly reminded that our success is built on the dedication of our people. This honor belongs to our team members, and it validates our daily commitment to creating a supportive, high‑trust environment where everyone has the opportunity to thrive and grow.”

The final organizational rankings will be revealed live during The Best Workplace Summit, a free virtual conference taking place on Thursday, December 10, at 4:00 p.m. EST / 1:00 p.m. PST. HR leaders, executives, and top employers will gather online to share cultural strategies, foster industry connections, and celebrate elite workplace environments.

The summit features inspiring insights and real-world strategies from Jaime Raul Zepeda about what makes a best workplace, and the live reveal of America’s Best Workplaces Awards. Attendees will leave with practical takeaways to boost engagement, strengthen culture, and position their organizations as a workplace where people truly want to stay and succeed.
