KALAMAZOO, Mich., May 16, 2024
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Zeigler Auto Group has been recognized as one
of Glassdoor's 50 Best-Led Companies of 2024 in the US, coming
in at number 30. This prestigious award honors companies with
exceptional senior leadership teams that excel in redefining the
employee experience. Unlike other workplace accolades, Glassdoor's
awards are based on employee feedback submitted anonymously over
the past year.
This award to me is all about our amazing
teams and leaders. We are fortunate to have a good group of strong
leaders who are innovative, and hard-working
"This award to me is all about our amazing teams and leaders. We
are fortunate to have a good group of strong leaders who are
innovative, and hard-working," said Aaron
J. Zeigler, CEO and president of Zeigler Auto Group, who
currently holds an impressive 97% approval rating. Zeigler Auto
Group has an overall 4.7-star rating, and a 96% "recommend to a
friend" rating, based on 477 ratings at the time of
publication.
Glassdoor determined the Best-Led Companies 2024 using a
proprietary awards algorithm, considering the quantity, quality,
and consistency of Glassdoor-approved reviews from U.S.-based
employees between March 1, 2023, and
February 29, 2024. In order to
qualify, companies must have more than 1,000 employees and at least
100 ratings on CEO job performance and senior management. Full
methodology details are available at
https://www.glassdoor.com/Award/index.htm.
Employees provide reviews on Glassdoor, rating several factors
tied to their employment experience, including their CEO's job
performance and senior management. They choose from approval,
disapproval, or no opinion of their CEO. Employees also share the
best reasons to work for the company, any downsides, and advice to
management. The Best-Led Companies algorithm uses Review
Intelligenceâ„¢, a sentiment analysis tool that reads, analyzes, and
categorizes reviews to identify topics and trends related to senior
leadership.
"We're continuing to see employees face challenges as they
navigate the rapidly evolving nature of worklife," said
Christian Sutherland-Wong, CEO of
Glassdoor. "But regardless of changes, one thing is certain; the
people within an organization remain its greatest asset, and I
truly believe employee wellbeing trickles down from the very top.
That's why we're excited to reveal Glassdoor's inaugural list of
the Best-Led Companies, showcasing those shining examples of
companies where senior leadership is putting worklife and people
first according to the millions of ratings and insights provided by
those who really know a company – employees."
This award comes at a time when a Glassdoor-commissioned survey
by The Harris Poll found that 72% of U.S. employees feel confident
in their organization's current leadership team, yet almost half
(46%) hold back feedback to management out of fear of retaliation.
Highlighting companies with transparent and authentic leadership,
as praised by their employees, is one of the many ways Glassdoor
helps job seekers make informed career decisions.
"Winning the Glassdoor Inaugural Best Led Companies Award for
2024 is a prestigious honor for us! To be among the top 50 other
amazing companies is a privilege! This award speaks volumes for our
world-class culture, Zeigler University, and that leadership
empowers our teams to do what's right for customers and each other.
They truly make a difference for us," said Mike Van Ryn, VP of Talent Development.
Zeigler Auto Group is well-known for its commitment to employee
and customer satisfaction. Recently the Kalamazoo-based dealer group was recognized as
a Glassdoor's Best Places To Work winner for 2023 and 2024. Besides
these coveted accolades, Zeigler has also been honored on a
separate list by the Glassdoor Economic Research Center which
placed the organization among the Top 10 U.S. Companies for
Work-Life Balance. On this list Zeigler landed at No. 6 and was the
only automotive company included.
The Top 10 US Companies for Work-Life Balance list was compiled
from Work-Life Balance ratings on Glassdoor from US-based full and
part-time employees between January 1,
2022 and September 28, 2022.
The ranking includes companies with more than 1,000 employees and
with a minimum of 50 Work-Life Balance ratings during the time
period. The average Work-Life Balance rating extends beyond the
hundredths place to determine this ranking.
Also in 2021, the Glassdoor's Economic Research listed the
dealer group among its Top 20 Highest-Rated Companies for Work-Life
Balance During the COVID-19 Pandemic, showing its unwavering
commitment to its employee programs regardless of the economic
landscape. The organization came in at number 14 nationwide, and
also held the top spot for new and used dealer auto groups. The
study gathered Glassdoor.com reviews from current and former
U.S.-based full-time employees between March
15, 2020, and September 28,
2021.
