Written by Star Report | Oct 2, 2025

Chicago, IL (October 2, 2025) — New Home Star has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2025 honor by Pittsburgh Top Workplaces 2025. This list is based solely on employee feedback from a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner Energage  LLC. The confidential poll uniquely measures the employee experience and its component themes, including employees feeling Respected & Supported, Enabled to Grow, and Empowered to Execute, to name a few. 

“People are at the heart of what we do,” says New Home Star Founder David Rice. ”Creating a workplace where our team members can thrive, succeed, and grow has always been our priority, and winning this award is an honor that reflects the passion and dedication of our Pittsburgh team, our builder partner, Maronda Homes, and beyond.”

“Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “That's something to be proud of. 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.”
