Why we like them: DPR has a Phantom Stock Program, which allows employees to share in its financial performance. It’s like a profit-sharing program, but once phantom stock is fully vested, employees receive a payout of the vested amount, plus equity.

DPR Construction takes care of its employees – with superior medical, dental and vision coverage, a 401(k) plan and flexible spending accounts. The company also has a Phantom Stock Program – a plan similar to profit sharing. The firm subsidizes fitness memberships to keep employees healthy and offers financial assistance to those who want to further their education and enhance their skills.
   
DPR – which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year – hands out generous referral bonuses to employees who recommend new hires. It also awards points to its DPR Store, where employees can buy branded clothing, gadgets and gift cards. And in a nod to the idea that people who play well together work well together, all of DPR’s 13 offices have a wine bar for company celebrations.
