We’re proud to share that Conexus has been recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in Pennsylvania for 2025 by the Central Penn Business Journal and Lehigh Valley Business.
This recognition reflects more than just a positive work environment—it affirms the culture of mutual respect, purpose, and technical excellence we’ve built over the past 20 years. From field technicians and engineers to project managers and administrative staff, every member of the Conexus team contributes to our mission: delivering open, non-proprietary building automation solutions that empower our clients with choice and long-term value.
A CULTURE GROUNDED IN TRUST AND TRANSPARENCY
At Conexus, culture isn’t something that happens by accident—it’s something we actively build every day. We believe in long-term relationships, not only with our clients, but with our team. That means creating an environment where people can grow, solve meaningful problems, and know their work matters.
Our team is small by design and tightly knit. With just under 50 employees, Conexus falls into the small company category for this award, which includes firms with 15–99 employees. This scale allows us to maintain flexibility, respond quickly to client needs, and ensure each employee has a direct line to leadership. It also means that no one gets lost in the crowd; everyone’s ideas, questions, and concerns are heard.
The result is a culture built on transparency and accountability. Our employees understand what we do, why we do it, and how their role contributes to our broader mission. We value honesty and follow-through, and we work hard to maintain open communication within our team and with our partners in the field.
HOW THE AWARD IS DETERMINED
The Best Places to Work in Pennsylvania list is not a popularity contest. It is determined through a two-part evaluation led by Best Companies Group, an independent research firm specializing in workplace culture assessments.
- 25% of the evaluation is based on an organization’s workplace policies, practices, and demographics.
- 75% of the evaluation comes directly from employee feedback via an anonymous survey.
That means this award is first and foremost a reflection of what our people experience every day. Their honest feedback about our culture, leadership, communication, work-life balance, and growth opportunities was instrumental in securing this recognition.
For us, that’s the most rewarding part. We strive to make Conexus a place where people feel supported, challenged, and valued. Being recognized based on our employees’ voices validates that we’re on the right path.
THE WORK THAT CONNECTS US
Our core business, building automation integration, attracts a unique kind of professional. Our team members are problem-solvers, engineers, and system thinkers who thrive on creating smarter, more resilient buildings. We serve hospitals, schools, government buildings, and corporate campuses, places where comfort, safety, and energy efficiency matter deeply.
Working at Conexus means working on systems that improve lives. Whether we’re designing a campus-wide BACnet IP integration for a school district or deploying cloud-hosted analytics for a hospital, we know our work has an impact.
We also take pride in our best practices, like aligning with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers commissioning protocols and promoting truly open, vendor-agnostic solutions. These aren’t just technical decisions—they’re ethical ones. They reflect our commitment to transparency and to doing what’s right for our clients, even when it takes more work.
That commitment extends inward as well. Our team has access to professional development opportunities, training, and cross-functional support. We invest in our people because we know that’s the best way to invest in our company’s future.
WHAT THIS RECOGNITION MEANS FOR THE ROAD AHEAD
This recognition comes at an exciting time for Conexus. As we celebrate our 20th anniversary in 2025, we’re reflecting on the values that have brought us here and recommitting to the work ahead.
Being named one of the Best Places to Work in Pennsylvania is a milestone, not a finish line. We’ll keep asking hard questions, listening closely to our team, and adapting to meet the evolving needs of both our people and our clients.
We’re grateful to the Central Penn Business Journal, Lehigh Valley Business, and Best Companies Group for this honor. More importantly, we’re grateful to our employees—for their talent, their trust, and their belief in what we’re building together.
Congratulations, Team Conexus. You’ve earned this.
