Albany, N.Y. – April 27th, 2015 – Auto/Mate Dealership Systems (https://automate.com) announced today that it ranked number one on the Top Workplaces 2015 report compiled by the Times-Union. This is the fourth consecutive year that Auto/Mate has received a Top Workplace award, and the first year that Auto/Mate has achieved the highest ranking in the mid-size business category in New York’s greater capital region. In addition, Auto/Mate’s President and CEO Mike Esposito received a special leadership award in the mid-size business category. Only one award is given to a leader in each category, a recognition that’s decided based on feedback from thousands of employee surveys sent out by Workplace Dynamics, LLC.

 

“I’m thrilled we made it to the top of the list and truly honored by the leadership award. I don’t take it for granted and will work hard to make sure Auto/Mate remains a Top Workplace,” said Mike Esposito, President and CEO of Auto/Mate. “The employee feedback from the survey gives us great insight as to what we need to focus on to keep both our employees and customers happy.”

 

Auto/Mate finished first among 20 companies with 125-499 employees. A total of fifty companies made the Top Workplaces list this year. The list is compiled annually by the Times-Union and by WorkplaceDynamics, a leading research firm on organizational health and employee engagement. Auto/Mate’s top ranking was based on criteria combining employee feedback, benefits packages and corporate culture.

 

Auto/Mate’s exceptional benefits include:

 

Mike Esposito’s special leadership award was based on employee responses to the Top Workplaces survey statement: “I have confidence in the leader of this company.” Employees were also asked “What does the leader of this company do well?” Anonymous comments received include “He is easy to talk to and shows appreciation for everyone’s hard work … which makes you feel important,” and “He understands what it takes to get the company moving in a positive direction.”

 

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