AVON, Conn. (March 3, 2023) — Mintz + Hoke is honored to announce the agency’s selection as a finalist in the Hartford Business Journal and New Haven Biz's Best Places to Work in Connecticut Awards for the eighth year in a row.

From hiring women in leadership roles to being an inclusive employer, to its unlimited PTO model and various team events and internal clubs, Mintz + Hoke works continuously to create a positive work environment and cultivate a strong sense of community within the agency.

Mintz + Hoke employees at the Best Places to Work Awards celebration held March 2 at the Aqua Turf Club in Plantsville.
