Just managing our custom rewards felt like a full-time job with our previous vendor—it took all day every Friday. With Awardco, I don't have to do any of the manual fulfilment work anymore. I'm saving 6-8 hours a week, just managing orders.

Change management was a concern when exploring new vendors. However, our leadership, HR, and associates have smoothly transitioned to Awardco, and they appreciate its straightforward and intuitive design, which surpasses the complexities of previous platforms.

Modern recognition with Awardco has created an ecosystem of appreciation. What we've found, as employees have recognised each other, is that they're motivated long term. Employees want to enjoy their work and be successful, and if we recognise them for their success, they'll know they're doing a great job and can improve every single day.

Companies that invest in recognition are seen as people-centric. When people feel appreciated for their contributions and are truly engaged, they’re more innovative, more creative, and more willing to think beyond the status quo. This elevates work, fuels stronger business outcomes and can foster deeper customer relationships.

Awardco significantly enhances employee engagement and helps our employees feel valued and appreciated, leading to higher morale. Offering customizable recognition programmes for Cinemark and a wide range of awards helps align with our employees' interests and ensures that all employees, from theatre staff to management, feel valued and appreciated.

Colleagues have to choose a value from The Collaborative Way when they recognize, making our recognition feed daily proof of why our values are so important. It’s such a powerfully positive place. Leaders are really taking notice—they want to see their teams at the top of the adoption leaderboard because they know the impact our values have on employee performance and retention.

We needed something to unify our recognition programmes for all our different locations, and we found that and more with Awardco.

Awardco is the perfect platform for our employee recognition programme. It supports our unique employee culture and community.

Awardco allows everything to support our core values and our mission, which is very important to us because that strengthens our culture.

Awardco has offered customisability that allows us to cater to our employees' needs and recognise what they are doing and change it as the environment changes as well.

With Awardco we now have more visibility into our incentive budgets than ever, and can be more judicious about our incentive spend.

We're present in pretty much every continent in the world, and there's no limitation to our recognition system. We see recognitions from Brazil to the US, from Japan to China, from South Africa to France, and everyone is engaged.

Since joining, I’ve found myKudos [Awardco] posts to be a great way to learn what others are doing across the agency. I’ve even picked up ideas from shoutouts that I’ve been able to implement on my own accounts. It’s more than recognition—it’s a source of inspiration.

Soon after our implementation we created a financial recognition programme through Awardco for managers and supervisors to recognise their employees for extra efforts. Now our managers and supervisors have their own budgeted amount to use at their discretion to award their employees at any time, and they don't have to wait for approval to do so.

I was really looking for a user-friendly, up-to-speed, and easy-to-use programme that can expand in different ways, and I found it with Awardco.
