What Our People Say About ArchKey

A progressive company whose brands have almost a century of experience behind them. I’m proud to work for one of the largest electrical contractors in the nation, working on some of the coolest projects.

Victor

Group Manager

I love working here because of the people. Working with a team that continuously challenges you and gives you opportunities to learn new things has made my experience here so far invaluable. It has been great to work somewhere where the company and people truly care.

Annie

Project Associate

I expected to sit behind a project manager just seeing what they were doing every day, getting coffee, and stapling stuff. What I was doing was walking job sites, looking at drawings, and working with electricians to find out what we needed for the job. Everything a project manager does, they had me doing. It’s nothing like I expected in the best way possible.

Jomari

Intern

I travel on a weekly basis. There’s a lot of trust that comes with so much freedom, and that’s one of the things that make this such a commendable workplace. Thousands of miles away, I know I can trust my co-workers to remain accountable. Integrity always.

Andy

Traveling Project Manager

I love working for a company that empowers its employees to work smarter and more effectively. They support employees by offering flexibility, opportunity for growth, and allowing us to adapt to achieve greater value in our work, for our customers, and for each other.

Cora

Project Assistant

This is an environment that is truly about teamwork and collaboration. Everyone is willing to help out when times are tough. When something needs to get done in short order, it’s never an argument about whose job it is. Everyone pitches in because at the end of the day, we’re all a team.
