MARCH 2026 — JLA Architects was recognized by Madison Magazine as one of the Best Places to Work for 2026 in the 25-99 employee category.
To qualify, Madison team members participated in an anonymous online survey prepared and managed by Quantum Workplace. The survey asked employees to respond to questions regarding team effectiveness, retention, alignment with goals, trust with co-workers and senior leaders, and manager effectiveness.
This ‘Best Place to Work’ award isn’t just a title, it’s a testament to the culture our team builds every single day. Huge thanks to our employees for their passion, their expertise, and for making our culture something truly special. We couldn’t do it without you!
