ALBANY, N.Y. — 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 and designed to measure several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection.

“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.”
