Zirous is thrilled to announce that it has been recognized as one of Iowa’s Top Workplaces 2025 by the Des Moines Register, ranking 5th out of 63 companies in the small business category.

The survey evaluates key factors including feeling respected & supported, being enabled to grow, and feeling empowered to execute — all essential elements in creating a workplace where people can thrive.

In today’s market, leaders must ensure they’re allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That’s paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends.”
