We’re proud to share that Claros Technologies has been named one of Minnesota’s Top Workplaces by the Minnesota Star Tribune.
More than 10,500 Minnesota companies were invited to participate. Being recognized among the top workplaces in the state is a meaningful validation of the culture we’ve built—one that continues to attract top talent from across the country to help solve one of the world’s most challenging environmental problems.
Most importantly, this recognition comes from our employees. Rankings are based entirely on survey responses collected by an independent firm specializing in employee engagement and retention. Claros employees shared their perspectives on engagement, organizational health, and job satisfaction, and the results speak for themselves.
Star Tribune CEO and Publisher Steve Grove said, “The companies in the Minnesota Star Tribune Top Workplaces deserve high praise for creating the very best work environments in the state of Minnesota. My congratulations to each of these exceptional companies.”
Doing Hard Work, Together
Eliminating PFAS from the environment is not a simple problem. It requires rigorous science, relentless iteration, and a team that’s genuinely committed to the mission — not just the job. The people at Claros show up every day to tackle one of the most persistent environmental challenges of our time: permanently destroying PFAS compounds that have accumulated in water, soil, and communities across the country.
That kind of work demands trust, transparency, and a culture where people feel heard. This award suggests we’re building that.
What This Means to Us
“When we started Claros, we knew the science had to be exceptional — but so did the team and the culture around it. This recognition tells us that the environment we’ve worked hard to create is real, not just aspirational. Our people are the reason we can take on a problem as difficult as PFAS, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built together.” — Michelle Bellanca, CEO & Co-Founder
“Culture doesn’t happen by accident — it’s a daily choice made by every person on the team. What makes this award meaningful is that it came directly from our employees’ voices. Knowing that the Claros team feels engaged, valued, and invested in this mission is exactly what we’re working toward, and this recognition confirms we’re on the right track.” — Nicole Konikow, VP Operations & HR
