Albany, NY – April 15, 2018​ – Auto/Mate Dealership Systems has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2019 honor by The Times Union. The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by research partner Energage, LLC, a leading provider of technology-based employee engagement tools. The anonymous survey measures several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.

“Top Workplaces is more than just recognition,” said Doug Claffey, CEO of Energage. “Our research shows organizations that earn the award attract better talent, experience lower turnover, and are better equipped to deliver bottom-line results. Their leaders prioritize and carefully craft a healthy workplace culture that supports employee engagement.”

This is the eighth year in a row that Auto/Mate has won the award. Auto/Mate ranked third place in the mid-size employer category.

“There's no real secret to becoming a top workplace, you just have to put the wellbeing of your employees first," said Mike Esposito, president and CEO of Auto/Mate. “When you care about your employees they care about your company and work hard to make it successful."

“Becoming a Top Workplace isn’t something organizations can buy,” Claffey said. “It’s an achievement that organizations have worked for and a distinction that gives them a competitive advantage. It’s a big deal.”

Auto/Mate has also been named a Best Places to Work in New York’s Capital Region by the Albany Business Review journal for nine years running; and has been honored multiple times as a Highest Rated and Top Rated DMS in the DrivingSales Dealer Satisfaction Awards.
