Rollins Inc. was named a 2021 Top Workplace by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC). This is the fifth consecutive year Rollins has received the award.
Arrow Exterminators was also named to the 2021 Top Workplaces list by AJC.
AJC’s Top Workplaces Award is based on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by research partner Energage. The survey measures several aspects of workplace culture including alignment, execution and connection. The list celebrates 175 small, midsize and large companies out of 3,035 in metro Atlanta, Ga.
Employees based at Rollins’ headquarters in Atlanta, Ga., support 19 pest control companies under the Rollins brand, including Orkin Pest Control. Worldwide, the company has more than 15,000 employees. Nearly 500 employees at Rollins’ headquarters responded to the survey.
“It’s an honor to receive this award for the fifth consecutive year,” Jerry Gahlhoff, president and COO of Rollins, said in a news release. “In the past year, our focus has been on the safety and well-being of our employees. Through the changes made, our employees have adapted and continue to meet our mission, which inspires us to be the best customer service company in the world. We are proud of our employees and appreciate their efforts to better serve our customers in these unprecedented times.”
Arrow Exterminators was also named the No. 4 Top Workplace in the U.S. by Energage.
