Staffing and recruiting software provider wins distinguished company culture award for 5^th consecutive year.

CHICAGO, Illinois– Automated Business Designs (ABD), developers of Ultra-Staff staffing software, was named one of Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® in 2020. This prestigious honor is the fifth consecutive year that ABD has been recognized by Chicago’s Best and Brightest program.

The Best and Brightest Program honors companies that distinguish themselves as having the most innovative and thoughtful human resources approach. An independent research firm evaluates each company’s entry, based on key measures in various categories including Compensation, Benefits and Employee Solutions, Employee Enrichment, Employee Education and Development, and more. Organizations must complete a rigorous application demonstrating their employees are provided with the resources and support for both professional and personal success. Additionally, organizations are judged by confidential employee responses. Those overwhelmingly positive responses helped ABD receive this distinguished recognition.

“We feel so honored to be recognized as one of Chicago’s Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® for 5 straight years,” said Terri Roeslmeier, President and CEO of Automated Business Designs. “Our employees mean a great deal to us, which is why we want to do everything we can to continually ensure they are well-compensated, always growing both professionally and personally, and sincerely enjoy what they do every day.”

ABD’s nomination included details of their comprehensive benefits package, which includes 100% Blue Cross Blue Shield health care coverage for each employee paid for by ABD. The company was also recognized for its innovative best practices and employee education. Last year, the Vice President of Systems Engineering introduced “Mornings with Molly”, which has seen an increase in attendance and popularity among employees. “Mornings with Molly” are optional bi-weekly training sessions that invite team members to take a deeper dive into the products ABD offers. These sessions have helped cross train all departments in the company and have opened up an environment for sharing tips and ideas for product enhancements. In addition to professional education, personal education is at the forefront at ABD. Annually, the leadership team invites a licensed financial advisor to conduct a session on managing 401K retirement plans. These advisors are available for free one-on-one consultation throughout the year.

ABD’s nomination also highlighted the company’s work hard play hard attitude. Birthday celebrations, team outing’s, FitBit® contests, and parties are all part of the culture at ABD. They always find an excuse to have a party whether that is to celebrate Barry Manilow’s birthday or to play their annual Hide and Go Peep Easter Scavenger Hunt Game, where they hide Peeps around the office and see who can find the most. It’s all part of the culture. With play though, also comes giving. As a team, ABD participates in fundraising walks and sponsors charity dinners throughout the year.

“I love working for ABD because they promote a culture based on team collaboration and giving back to the community,” said Sandy Lund, Controller at Automated Business Designs. “ABD’s positive culture makes work a fun and gratifying experience.”

The recognition of employee achievements was also demonstrated in the nomination. From giving out esteemed awards to employees at the ABD client meeting, to just simply recognizing someone in an email for receiving accolades from a client, all achievements are recognized.

These are just a handful of the reasons why ABD is one of the Best & Brightest Companies to Work For® in Chicago.
