AGS only gaming company recognized by Glassdoor's Best Places to Work in 2020

AGS has been honored with a Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award, recognizing the Best Places to Work in 2020 in the U.S. small and medium company category. 

The Employees’ Choice Awards, now in its 12th year, is based solely on the input of employees, who elect to provide feedback about their jobs, work environments, companies, and leadership on Glassdoor.com, one of the world’s largest job and recruiting sites.

AGS was one of only 50 companies in the United States to receive the award in its category and was the only gaming company to be honored.

AGS President and Chief Executive Officer David Lopez said: “We are truly honored to receive this award, which is even more meaningful because it came from our employees and their anonymous, genuine reviews about AGS that they have posted on Glassdoor.com. Our focus every day is how to create the best experience for our employees, and we do it through our core values, or the AGS Playbook, which encourages our team to ‘Act Like a CEO’, ‘Keep It Real’, ‘Embrace Change’, ‘Love the Game’, embrace a ‘Spirit of Service’, and of course, ‘Aspire to Win’, which keeps us competitive and driven to succeed in our industry.”

Glassdoor President, Chief Operating Officer, and incoming Chief Executive Christian Sutherland-Wong commented: “This year marks the shift to a culture-first decade in the workplace, and Glassdoor’s Employees’ Choice Awards winners are employers that are prioritizing culture, mission, and employees at the heart of everything they do.” He added that this year’s winners also “stand out for promoting transparency with employees, offering career growth opportunities, and providing work driven by impact and purpose.”

On Glassdoor, current and former employees voluntarily and anonymously share insights and opinions about their work environments by sharing a company review, designed to capture a genuine and authentic inside look at what a specific job may be like at a particular company. When sharing a company review on Glassdoor, employees are asked to rate their satisfaction with the company overall, and key workplace factors like career opportunities, compensation and benefits, culture and values, senior management, and work/life balance. In addition, employees are asked to describe the best reasons to work at their companies, as well as any downsides.
