Fortune Magazine Names Hughes Marino the #2 Best Workplace in the Nation

By Shay Hughes

I am proud to announce that Great Place to Work and Fortune Magazine have honored Hughes Marino as the #2 best workplace in the nation! Just this year, Hughes Marino was named #1 best place to work by Business Journals in multiple regions we serve so when we heard the news today–it topped of our already amazing year! Chairman & CEO Jason Hughes and I make the happiness of our team a top priority and we couldn’t have earned this accolade without our truly phenomenal teammates who have made our company what it is today.

From having fun themed Fridays, group workouts, to team beach clean ups, inspiring guest speakers, to monthly birthday celebrations and more, we truly cherish our team and want to ensure that they are not only fulfilled professionally but also personally! We encourage our team to work hard but also take time to enjoy the journey (our Core Value #3)!

It seems like yesterday when we were celebrating being ranked the #1 best workplace by Fortune in 2018 and I am so very grateful that our team members are not only proud of where they work, but also truly love those who surround them. Jason and I started Hughes Marino to disrupt the antiquated commercial real estate industry and it is truly humbling to be honored for our special company culture!

Yes, we have fun, but on a deeper level, it is our deep relationships among our team and care for one another that make this company such a special place to work. Our Core Values are what binds us all together and we believe that if we remain true to them–we can’t go wrong in business and in our personal lives. We are absolutely honored to have been recognized by Fortune along with so many other amazing companies!
