O’Connell & Aronowitz Named a 2026 Top Workplace by the Times Union

We are proud to announce that O’Connell & Aronowitz has been named a 2026 Top Workplace by the Times Union — marking our seventh consecutive year and twelfth overall on this prestigious list. This recognition is a direct reflection of the people who make our firm what it is, and we are grateful for every one of them.

Recognition Rooted in Employee Feedback

The Times Union’s Top Workplaces designation is based entirely on employee feedback gathered through a confidential, third-party survey administered by Energage, LLC. The survey measures key dimensions of workplace culture — including alignment, execution, and connection — and no employer input factors into the outcome. The results speak for themselves.

This year’s participation rate reflects the deep engagement within our team. Knowing that our attorneys and staff took time to share their honest perspectives — and that those perspectives produced this result — makes the recognition especially meaningful.

“Being named a Top Workplace is always an honor. But knowing this recognition comes directly from our employees’ honest feedback makes it something we are truly proud of. Our team is at the heart of everything we do.”

— Michael McDermott, President, O’Connell & Aronowitz
