For the seventh year in a row, Carroll Electric Membership Cooperative has
been recognized as a Top Workplace by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. This year’s winners
were recognized at the 2021 AJC Top Workplaces virtual event Thursday, March 18.
Employees and members of businesses and organizations in the small, mid-size and large
categories participated in a third-party survey administered by Energage, LLC. Feedback
gathered from the anonymous survey measured workplace culture drivers that are critical to the
success of any organization.
“During this very challenging time, Top Workplaces has proven to be a beacon of light for
organizations, as well as a sign of resiliency and strong business performance,” said Eric Rubino,
Energage CEO. “When you give your employees a voice, you come together to navigate
challenges and shape your path forward. Top workplaces draw on real-time insights into what
works best for their organization, so they can make informed decisions that have a positive
impact on their people and their business.”
Carroll EMC was first awarded the Top Workplace recognition in 2014 and has continued to
rank respectably in the small business category the past six years. In 2021, the cooperative
ranked 25 out of 86 small businesses.
“Last year was hard on many businesses,” said Tim Martin, President and CEO for Carroll EMC.
“Workplace culture has always been a top priority for us. At the cooperative, we are more than
just Member-focused—we are employee-focused. This honor shows how resilient our employees
are in making the best of difficult times.”
