Commercial gaming supplier AGS has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2020, National Standard honor by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The honor is based solely on a voluntary confidential survey of its employees in Metro Atlanta. This award comes on the heels of AGS being named as one of Atlanta’s Best and Brightest Companies To Work For in 2019 for the third year in a row. AGS was the only gaming company named to both the Best and Brightest and Top Workplaces lists.

The anonymous employee survey, administered by third-party researcher Energage, measured several aspects of workplace culture, including alignment, execution, and connection.

AGS Chief Technology Officer Sigmund Lee, who is based in Atlanta and oversees the company’s slot-product development, said, “Our strong desire to help one another succeed is core to our culture, and it’s especially nice to have an award based on anonymous and voluntary employee feedback.”

AGS has two campuses in the Atlanta Metro area, one in Duluth, Georgia and another in Midtown. Nearly 200 employees work at these two campuses, primarily in research and development, with a focus on game development, hardware engineering, software design, graphic design, and quality assurance.

Energage Chief Executive Officer Eric Rubino said, “For more than a decade, the Top Workplaces award has helped organizations stand out among their competitors to attract talent. This differentiation is more important than ever in today’s tight labor market.”
