CLA earns Seramount’s 100 Best Companies recognition for the fourth consecutive year, highlighting its people first culture.
CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen LLP), one of the nation’s leading accounting and professional services firms with a growing global presence, announced today that it has been recognized by Seramount as one of the Top 100 Best Companies in the U.S. for the fourth consecutive year.
This recognition highlights organizations that invest in inclusive, industry-leading benefits and is based on Seramount’s in-depth review of pay equity, parental and caregiver leave, childcare support, expanded mental health benefits, advancement, culture, and more. CLA has once again been selected for this prestigious honor, reflecting its commitment to continually evaluate and evolve its benefits in ways that help its people support their growth and well-being at work and in life.
“To be recognized by Seramount for the fourth consecutive year is incredibly meaningful because it reflects the culture we are building together,” said Kirthi Mani, Chief People Officer of CLA. “This honor reminds us that supporting our people is not a one-time program or a line item — it is a commitment. We will keep listening, learning, and evolving so CLA can be a place where people feel cared for, challenged, and proud to grow their careers.”
CLA’s approach focuses on creating opportunities for its people through flexible work arrangements, industry leading benefits, and a culture grounded in trust, inclusion, and belonging. As part of this commitment, CLA continues to attract, develop, and retain top talent, supporting its ability to deliver exceptional service to clients while fostering an environment where its people can thrive.
“In today’s talent market, family-friendly benefits have become a business imperative,” said Subha Barry, President of Seramount. “Organizations that pay attention and invest in policies that support employees both at work and at home are better positioned to attract, engage, and retain top talent.”
This list, in various forms, has existed for more than 40 years and is regarded as a key measure of workplace climates and best practices that benefit working parents and caregivers.
