COE Distributing Honored Among 2021 Pittsburgh Top Workplaces by Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

UNIONTOWN, Pa. - Sept. 9, 2021 - PRLog -- COE Distributing has been awarded a 2021Top Workplaces honor by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, ranking 21 of 63 small companies recognized on the list.

Altogether, the Post-Gazette spotlighted 95 Pittsburgh-area companies of various sizes and industries on the rankings which are based solely on feedback from employees who rate their workplace culture through a third-party survey administered by the Post-Gazette's Top Workplaces research partner Energage LLC.

The anonymous survey measures 15 drivers of engaged cultures critical to the success of any organization. Data collected addresses employee satisfaction with the basics like pay, benefits and training and gives a unique look at the importance employees place on their alignment with their company's values and direction, having meaningful work and feeling appreciated.

"An engaged and focused team is what has enabled COE to prosper through the pandemic and some of the most trying economic circumstances businesses have ever grappled with," said COE Distributing Chairman and CEO J.D. Ewing. "This recognition tells us our employees understand they truly are an indispensable part of our success story and we couldn't be prouder of that."

COE Distributing's robust employee engagement program drives the company's impressive growth and success offering more than 100 employees career development programs like Rising Stars, Employee Recognition and Profit Sharing along with personal benefits such as Financial Workshops, Volunteer Paid Time Off and Virtual Book Clubs.

COE also enjoys an employee engagement partnership with the Pittsburgh Penguins featuring a bi-weekly peer-to-peer recognition program awarding a game-worn Penguins helmet to an employee embodying COE's core values of Customer Service, Teamwork, Innovation, Quality, Transparency, Safety and Respect.

The Post-Gazette and Energage invited public, private, nonprofit or governmental entities with more than 50 employees to participate in the 2021 survey. The official rankings, tabulated from the survey results, were announced in a special edition of the Post-Gazette and COE and other nominees were celebrated in a virtual awards program on September 9.
