CHICAGO, IL (July 9, 2025) — Milhouse has been recognized as one of Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® by the National Association for Business Resources (NABR) for the 20th consecutive year. This honor reflects Milhouse’s long-term commitment to cultivating an exceptional workplace culture and investing in the success and well-being of its employees.
