Tru was recently named one of Consulting Magazine’s 2025 Best Boutique Firms to Work For and certified as a Great Place to Work for the fourth year in a row.
These are national honors with real meaning. Consulting Magazine evaluated more than 300 firms for its 2025 list. Only 50 were selected across all categories and Tru landed in the top 10 boutique firms.
Our Great Place to Work results tell a similar story. 90% of our employees say Tru is a great place to work, compared to just 57% at a typical U.S. based company. You can view our full profile here.
We’re proud of those numbers. But what matters more is what they reflect.
At Tru, the culture is built into the way we work. It’s in how we support one another, how we deliver for our clients, and how we keep raising the bar together. So, we asked a few team members to share why they chose Tru. Here’s what they had to say.
A Shared Mission
“At Tru, you have a team that truly cares about what they are doing,” said Brock DeCicco, senior account executive. “The culture here is amazing. Everyone is working together toward the same goal.”
That sense of purpose runs deep. For many, the mission is personal.
“I choose to work at Tru because I’m passionate about higher education,” said Lucas Proa Filippi, an associate at Tru. “I feel motivated to help institutions plan better and be more efficient so they can deliver more education to more people. I can feel that impact in real life.”
Growth That Feels Personal
Growth at Tru is not about climbing a ladder. It’s about earning trust, getting feedback that helps you lead, and learning through real work.
“I’m with Tru because I truly believe in the mission to deliver excellence,” said KaKa Siu, a senior associate. “I also see the work I do every day having a real impact on our customers. And at Tru, I’ve found both lifelong friends and mentors who challenge me to grow.”
Siu also called out leadership as a key reason people stay.
“Our leadership is the best I’ve ever worked with,” she said. “They trust us. They know we can help build the reputation of the company. And they give us opportunities to develop and lead.”
Real Work, Real Results
For many at Tru, the draw is the work itself. Not just what we do, but how we do it.
“I love working at Tru because we get to really solve higher ed problems,” said Christal Somar, Director of Delivery at Tru. “We work with different universities and help them navigate complex budgeting and finance challenges. That work makes their day-to-day better, and we see the difference we make.”
What Tru Does
Tru helps higher education and public sector institutions modernize financial planning and decision-making. We use Anaplan to build connected planning solutions that unify budgeting, forecasting, capital planning and reporting into a single source of strategic truth.
Our clients are navigating complexity. We help them move forward with confidence. We do that by building a company where people are trusted to lead, supported to grow, and surrounded by teams that care about outcomes.
That is what makes Tru a great place to work. And that is why people choose to stay. Tru is hiring across roles in consulting, delivery and strategy. To learn more, visit tru.consulting/careers.
