Plante Moran in Southfield, one of the nation’s largest audit, tax, consulting and wealth management firms, announces its inclusion on Fortune magazine’s list of 100 Best Companies to Work For for the 27th consecutive year.
The firm ranked No. 21 on the list for 2025.
Over the last 100 years, Plante Moran has evolved from a sole accounting practitioner in Detroit to a billion-dollar firm with nearly 4,000 professionals who serve clients worldwide. Throughout this growth, the firm has stayed true to the same principles, culture and values that have helped the firm get to where it is today.
“Our culture is the cornerstone of our success,” says Jason Drake, managing partner at Plante Moran. “We believe in a people-first approach, where our staff’s well-being and professional development are paramount. This recognition from Fortune is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire firm.”
Plante Moran’s approach to staff development includes assigning each team member a “buddy” and an advisory team member for mentorship and career coaching. This supportive environment, combined with continuous growth opportunities through various training programs and leadership workshops, ensures that staff are well-equipped to excel in their roles.
“We pride ourselves on being a firm that both staff and clients can count on,” Drake says. “Our commitment to a relatively jerk-free workplace, constant communication and recognition of achievements fosters a positive and respectful environment. This culture not only attracts top talent but also ensures that our clients receive the highest quality service.”
Plante Moran’s “We Care” culture prioritizes high-touch relationships, transparency and trust, creating an environment where staff can thrive both personally and professionally. This supportive atmosphere has been a driving force behind the firm’s ability to innovate and adapt in a rapidly changing industry.
“Being recognized by Fortune for 27 consecutive years is an incredible honor,” Drake adds. “It reflects our ongoing commitment to our staff, clients and communities. We’ll continue to nurture and maintain our one-of-a-kind culture as we look forward to many more years of success.”
