After COVID hit we had over 1800 employees go remote. Our HQ campus became a ghost town. We couldn't do the high touch thing anymore, but still wanted to engage our workforce. Because of the nature of remote work, we didn't even know which employees were where, and there was no way we could use our old system of bi-annual distribution. We had gotten so much positive feedback with our service anniversary program that we reached out to Awardco to see if they could do something to help us with our bonus program.

Awardco brought our recognition programs into the 21st century.

The recognition showed me that even the small, extra efforts I put in are valued. That inspires me to keep contributing beyond my regular responsibilities.

We used to give everyone a trophy at our annual event. Now, we reward true top performers. Awardco enables smarter, more meaningful recognition and spend.

In any meeting with more than ten people, I like to start with a recognition—highlighting what’s happening and what’s going well. Even in my executive meetings, I’ll share a recognition that stood out from one of the leaders. I enjoy leading with recognition, focusing on the positives rather than dwelling on what’s missing.

We were looking for a simple yet effective platform with a user-friendly interface, and Awardco ticked all the boxes. Through Awardco, we’ve been able to integrate multiple recognition touchpoints into one platform.

We know that there is a direct tie between how recognized and appreciated someone feels and how engaged they are and productive in their work.

I really appreciate how myKudos [Awardco] offers different ‘classifications’ of shoutouts, so no matter how someone went above and beyond, there’s a way to recognize it. We work with some incredible people, and it’s important to celebrate them however we can.
