Baker Sterchi Named Among 2020 Best Companies to Work For

Baker Sterchi has been named among the 2020 Best Companies to Work For by Ingram’s Magazine.  

The Best Companies to Work For distinction recognizes workplaces in the Greater Kansas City area with management practices, educational and advancement opportunities, compensation and benefits, workplace environment, fiscal strength, and civic engagement that set them apart from other companies throughout the region.

According to Ingram's, there are over 75,000 companies licensed to do business in the Greater Kansas City area. Ingram's has recognized a total of fourteen large, mid-size, and small companies as 2020 Best Companies to Work For winners, with Baker Sterchi joining three other companies in the mid-size category.

Ingram’s previously recognized Baker Sterchi as a finalist in the Best Companies to Work For small company category in 2009 and 2014. Today, Baker Sterchi has more than 60 attorneys, professionals, and support staff in Kansas City and more than 120 across all office locations in Missouri, Illinois, and Kansas.  

"We are honored Ingram's named Baker Sterchi as a 2020 Best Companies to Work For award winner," said Scott Kreamer, Managing Member. "Our focus has always been to provide the best working environment for our employees. One example is our Professional Development program - which we believe is unique in the legal field. The goal of the program is for each of our employees to achieve the most rewarding legal career for themselves. We help them accomplish this by identifying the keys to success and then offering specialized training, support and opportunities in these areas. Success looks different to different people, so we also offer alternative career paths for attorneys to fit their own goals and life circumstances, whether that is a path to equity membership or an alternative path."

“At Baker Sterchi, we foster a culture of friendliness and teamwork,” said Karen Griggs, Executive Director. “In addition to competitive salaries and benefits, we also provide support to attorneys and staff for leadership opportunities within and outside the firm. Attorneys and staff regularly hold national, regional, and local leadership positions in defense organizations and bar associations, as well as legal administrator, legal administrative assistant, paralegal, and legal marketing associations.“

Ingram’s Magazine is a leading business publication in Missouri and Kansas, covering business, industry, and economic development trends throughout the bi-state region for over 45 years. Ingram’s launched its annual Best Companies to Work For program in 2008.
