Built In recognizes the pioneer of “Consulting 2.0” as a premier employer.
Catalant, a leading consulting solutions provider connecting top independent consultants with global enterprises, today announced it has been recognized by Built In as one of the Best Places to Work in 2026. This award recognizes Catalant’s status as a stand-out employer and underscores the company’s position as a leading institution that is reimagining how global enterprises access expertise.
As the creator of a new category in professional services, Consulting 2.0, Catalant has built a culture that mirrors the agility and transparency it provides to its clients. In an era where AI is fundamentally shifting the talent landscape, Catalant’s focus on human-centric, purpose-fit solutions has made it a destination for those looking to build the future of work.
Catalant was honored on the Boston Best Places to Work list, a distinction based on an objective analysis of compensation, benefits, and the company’s unique approach to cultural development.
“Our mission to fundamentally change how consulting happens is ambitious, and it’s the grit, empathy, and engagement of our team that make it possible,” says Pat Petitti, Catalant CEO and Founder. “Being named a Best Place to Work is especially meaningful after a year of significant transition. This recognition doesn’t belong to the company—it belongs to the people who showed up for one another during the hard stretches. I am incredibly proud of how we’ve navigated change together.”
