NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — MountainOne announced that it has been named a 2025 Best Places to Work by the Boston Business Journal.
 
The Boston Business Journal's annual ranking showcases the Massachusetts companies that excel in fostering and sustaining exceptional work environments for their employees, according to a press release. The 100 companies honored in 2025 range in size and industry, with winners from various sectors, including financial, technology, retail, and health care.
 
"At MountainOne, we believe that a strong, supportive workplace culture is the foundation for success – not just for our employees, but for the communities we serve," said Beth Petropulos, Senior Vice President, Senior Human Resources & SAFE Act Officer at MountainOne. "We are honored by this recognition from the Boston Business Journal and will continue to foster an environment where every employee feels valued, empowered, and inspired to grow."
 
The businesses that met criteria for office location and size participated in employee-engagement surveys distributed by Business Journal partner Quantum Workplace. Employees were asked to rate their work environment, work-life balance, job satisfaction, advancement opportunities, management, compensation, and benefits. Based on the results of those surveys, businesses were assigned a score out of 100 percent and ranked by Quantum, stated a press release.
 
"The companies that comprise this year's Best Places to Work are among the most diverse in the decades we've been doing this program," said Carolyn Jones, Market President and Publisher of the Boston Business Journal. "Their commitment to teamwork, employee engagement, flexibility and trust are the model to which the region's businesses look for inspiration."
 
The Best Places to Work celebration will be held on June 12 at The Westin Copley Place. A special publication honoring the Top Places to Work winners will appear in the June 13 weekly edition of the Boston Business Journal.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The Superintendent's Award has been presented to Landon LeClair, a senior in McCann Technical School's advanced manufacturing course. 
 
The presentation was made last Thursday by Superintendent Jame Brosnan after Principal Justin Kratz read from teachers' letters extolling LeClair's school work, leadership and dedication. 
 
"He's become somewhat legendary at the Fall State Leadership Conference for trying to be a leader at his dinner table, getting an entire plate of cookies for him and all his friends," read Kratz to chuckles from the School Committee. "Landon was always a dedicated student and a quiet leader who cared about mastering the content."
 
LeClair was also recognized for his participation on the school's golf team and for mentoring younger teammates. 
 
"Landon jumped in tutoring the student so thoroughly that the freshman was able to demonstrate proficiency on an assessment despite the missed class time for golf matches," read Kratz.
 
The principal noted that the school also received feedback from LeClair's co-op employer, who rated him with all fours.
 
"This week, we sent Landon to our other machine shop to help load and run parts in the CNC mill," his employer wrote to the school. LeClair was so competent the supervisor advised the central shop might not get him back.
