Inside Burns & McDonnell
Because we’re 100 percent employee-owned, every one of us has a personal stake in our future. When we’re all moving together in the same direction, amazing things happen — for our clients’ projects and for our careers.

Employee Ownership
How it feels to be an owner.
When Burns & McDonnell became an employee-owned firm in 1986, it kicked off a cultural renaissance and an era of significant expansion that continues today. That’s because every day, everyone here feels the rewards of employee ownership — a difference-maker that goes beyond financial benefit.

When the company is yours, you approach your job differently. Our hard work leads to our clients’ success, which leads to our company’s success. It’s a beneficial cycle that comes back to you financially, now and in the future. It’s invigorating to do great work in an above-and-beyond environment. It’s humbling to be surrounded by people you trust — in a place where you’ll push yourself, knowing you always have the support you need.

What is an ESOP?
Our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) turns employees into owners who, as stockholders, participate directly in the company’s profitability. Our ESOP is special — only a small percentage of firms nationwide are 100 percent employee-owned, and even fewer have enjoyed that status for more than 25 years.

Enrollment in our ESOP is automatic and costs nothing. At year-end, our company makes a cash contribution to the ESOP, which is allocated to eligible employee-owners. The cash in your account purchases shares at the current fair market value. Throughout your career with Burns & McDonnell, your account can grow with annual contributions, stock appreciation and dividend payments at no personal cost. It’s a high-impact benefit that rewards loyalty and success. And the retirement rewards can be significant.

Benefits & Wellness
Caring for our greatest asset: you.
We give our clients industry-leading solutions to help them succeed. It makes sense to adopt the same approach for our employees. Our industry-leading benefits package takes care of you so that you can focus on doing great work. From insurance and disability to time off and wellness programs, it's our duty to look after your needs

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)

As an eligible employee-owner, you share directly in the profitability of the company as stockholders, and it doesn't cost you a thing. ESOP accounts can accumulate wealth in different ways: through the cash contribution effective at year-end, the market performance on the daily-valued cash accounts, stock appreciation and quarterly dividends.

Insurance

Medical, Vision and Dental Insurance: Our benefits are robust and flexible — a choice of two health plans with prescription drug plan, annual routine vision exams and available coverage for eyewear and vision surgeries, and a choice of two dental plans. You can also save pre-tax dollars in a flexible spending account for medical and/or dependent care expenses. 
Short- and Long-Term Disability: After a year of employment, you’re eligible for full salary continuation for up to 90 days at no cost if an illness or disability keeps you from work. You can also insure 50 percent to 60 percent of your earnings to provide non-taxable income if you are unable to work long term.
Life Insurance: All employee-owners benefit from a basic policy at no cost, and you can purchase supplemental coverage for yourself and your family. Basic and optional supplemental coverage is also provided for accidental death and dismemberment.
Accident and Critical Illness Insurance: Optional coverage provides payments to employee-owners for covered accidental injuries or critical illnesses.

Paid Time Off Programs

Time Off: You'll accrue 15 days of personal time off during your first year. After five years, we'll add an additional day for each year through 15 years of service for a total of 25 accrued days.
Holidays: Employee-owners receive eight paid holidays per year. 
Bereavement: In the event of a death in the immediate family, we provide paid leave to handle matters related to death and grieving.

Wellness Program

Fitness Centers: An on-site facility is available at our world headquarters, and corporate discounts are available at commercial centers nationwide.
Health Center: Our on-site center at our world headquarters is staffed with a nurse practitioner and a dedicated health coach, available to help employee-owners tackle day-to-day health challenges and meet long-term health goals. 
Health Incentives: Weight loss and smoking cessation programs help direct employee-owners onto a beneficial path. Healthy activities are encouraged and rewarded with a wellness credit and tobacco-free insurance credits.
Employee Assistance Program: A professional counseling organization provides assessments, short-term counseling and referrals to other resources for employee-owners and their immediate families, helping address stress from a range of sources.
