The Ōnin Group has been named one of Business Alabama’s Best Companies to Work For in Alabama, recognized for building a workplace where people are supported, equipped, and empowered to perform at their best. The award highlights Ōnin’s Birmingham Home Office and Alabama branches, where strong teams fuel strong results for partners across the state.
This statewide honor evaluates companies based on direct employee feedback. For Ōnin, the recognition reinforces a long-standing belief that investing in people is not only the right thing to do, but also the foundation for sustained success.
“At Ōnin, culture isn’t a buzzword, it’s a foundational aspect of our operating system,” said Jim Weaver, CEO of The Ōnin Group. “We intentionally build an environment where people are empowered to do meaningful work, grow their careers, and support each other.”
Ōnin’s approach centers on accountability, opportunity, and shared ownership. As an ESOP (employee stock ownership plan) company, internal employees are also owners of the company. That structure fosters a heightened level of responsibility and pride, and it shows up in the way teams support clients, collaborate, and innovate.
“When people feel ownership, literally and culturally, the whole organization rises,” said Rosalyn Lawson, Vice President of People & Culture. “Our teams in Alabama, and across the U.S., show what’s possible when you build a workplace on trust and shared success.”
The honor from Business Alabama reflects the momentum Ōnin continues to build nationally as well. Earlier this year, Ōnin was recognized as a Best Staffing Firm to Work For by Staffing Industry Analysts for the fifth consecutive year in 2025. Ōnin was also honored by the Birmingham Business Journal as a 2025 Best Place to Work.
For Ōnin, these awards are not the endpoint but a reflection of the company’s ongoing purpose: Creating opportunity and empowering people.
