MV Transportation Lands on the Dallas–Fort Worth Top Workplaces List for the First Time — on Its Own Employees' Votes

MV Transportation Lands on the Dallas–Fort Worth Top Workplaces List for the First Time — on Its Own Employees' Votes (Dallas Watch News)

DALLAS — MV Transportation has been named one of The Dallas Morning News' Top Workplaces D-FW for 2026, the company announced Tuesday. The annual program, conducted with the independent research firm Energage, is based entirely on employee feedback, surveying the employee experience across leadership, compensation, training, workplace flexibility and diversity. It is not a pay-for-play list, the program notes — workplaces are selected on the survey results — and for MV, a first-time honoree, the ranking is a Metroplex workplace story about the people who keep transit moving.

'Being named a Top Workplace is incredibly meaningful because all of the feedback comes directly from our teammates and reflects their outstanding experience on the MV team,' said Harry Wilson, the company's chairman and CEO, in the announcement. The company's chief human resources officer, Jarrett Andrews, called it 'the first time MV has been named to this prestigious list' and said the honor recognizes progress while the company's focus stays on improving the employee experience for teammates, passengers and clients.

MV is one of the country's largest American-owned transit services providers: it partners with more than 100 transit agencies, municipalities, schools and corporations nationwide, employs about 10,000 people, and marks more than 50 years in business as a family-owned company. Its D-FW recognition lands in a region where contracted transit labor — drivers, dispatchers, mechanics — is the invisible workforce behind every route. The Top Workplaces D-FW program celebrates its winners with a media and recognition program through The News, which reaches 1.3 million people weekly across print and digital.

The Only KidZania in America Is in Frisco — and It Just Turned Seven

There are 27 KidZania cities in 18 countries, and exactly one of them is in the United States: the 100,000-square-foot, kid-sized city inside Stonebriar Centre in Frisco, where children ages 4 to 14 work as pilots, physicians, chefs and TV hosts and get paid in kidZos. It opened in November 2019 — and this month it is celebrating its seventh birthday with a dance party, a runway, a snow-globe workshop and 15% off tickets through December 31.
