Employees Only Among National Recipients of Prestigious Alfred P. Sloan Award
As an employer, there is nothing more gratifying than knowing that your employees are happy. Office morale is something every company strives to create, maintain and preserve, however, this is no easy task. The way we work today has changed. The ease with which we are always connected to the office makes managing work and home life ever more challenging. And we all, collectively, have trouble unplugging, both literally and figuratively at times. This blurred line can mean increased stress from multitasking while trying to efficiently manage time. In short, perhaps today it is more difficult than ever to create a healthy, productive work environment due to the rapidly fading traditional 9-5 workday of yesteryear. 
The process starts when employers fill out questionnaires to compete for consideration, after which surveys are sent to the employees of the companies that look the most promising. If the response rate from employees of the identified companies is high enough with sufficiently impressive ratings, the employer makes the cut. Award winners typically demonstrate creative approaches to foster and cultivate employee engagement and motivation. Additionally, they find interesting ways to add flexibility to the workplace. “Office morale is not something you can easily gauge in an Excel spreadsheet. However, it is easy to notice when it is affecting productivity and your bottom line. We take great pride in trying to create an environment where everyone is energized to come to work with peace of mind that they can efficiently manage a good work/life balance. Being recognized for the Alfred P. Sloan award is a testament to our big picture vision and our dedicated team that helps move that vision forward each day,” stated Mario Apruzzese, CEO and Head Visionary of Employees Only. As Ellen Galinsky, president of Families and Work Institute, accurately summarized, “The employers who win this award are the best and most innovative in the nation, and they’re reaping the benefits in the success of their companies as they compete in a 24/7 global marketplace.” We are honored to be part of this group and we would like to convey a sincere note of gratitude to all our hardworking staff at Employees Only. Without your commitment and positive disposition this would not be possible. Great work team!
