One Team of Proud Employee-Owners
We understand that people make the difference, and we’re proud that 100% of our company belongs to our employees. As an employee-owned company, we operate an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) to ensure that everyone on our Barton team has an important stake in the company’s success. This ownership mentality has improved our already-strong culture and has allowed us to make our business the best it can be for our staff, our clients, and the communities we serve.

Meet Our Employee-Owners
Barton Associates, Inc. provides stability, growth, and the opportunity to work alongside experienced engineering professionals who care not only about their client’s success but their co-worker’s success as well! We are a growing employee-owned company of 70+ employees who bring with them an average tenure of 10 years!
Each month we invite you to get to know more about our employee-owners and find out why they like working for an employee-owned company as well as some interesting and fun facts!
