Bluco Corp. Receives Recognition for Company Culture
The NABR has named Bluco as one of Chicago’s “Best and Brightest Companies to Work For” for the third consecutive year.
Bluco Corp., designers and manufacturers of modular fixturing solutions for welding, machining, robotics and positioning applications, announced that for the third consecutive year, it has been named one of Chicago’s “Best and Brightest Companies to Work For.” This recognition is awarded to organizations that demonstrate exceptional human resource practices, an innovative approach to business and a commitment to employee engagement and satisfaction.
According to Bluco, the company follows a philosophy to “Do the right thing,” emphasizing integrity, community engagement and employee well-being. “Our drive to do the right thing clarifies our purpose, simplifies choices and challenges, and defines our culture,” says Margy Pagone, human resources specialist at Bluco. “It’s the foundation of all the benefits, achievements and initiatives that make Bluco the exceptional company that it is.”
In addition to offering competitive pay, Bluco offers benefits that prioritize employee well-being and work-life balance. From flexible schedule options to company-sponsored wellness programs and stipends, the company says it has created an environment where employees can thrive both personally and professionally.
Through its charitable initiative called “Bluco Cares,” the company and its employees gave back to its community and participated in eight charity events in 2022. They volunteered at the Spring Special Olympics Games, fulfilled the holiday wish list of an adopted family, came together for an all-company 5K to benefit research into a neuromuscular disorder and donated time and resources to many other causes.
“Our tagline is ‘Make it Better,’ and that goes beyond our company walls,” says Pagone. “We want to do the same for the communities where we live and work as well. It’s important that we make a difference where we can.’’
Additionally Bluco’s approach to entry-level positions employs a potential-based recruitment program called “Hire>Inspire>Grow,” which prioritizes raining and support and fosters a culture of mentorship and leadership development.
The Best and Brightest Companies to Work For are chosen annually by the National Association for Business Resources (NABR), based on an independent review of key measures relative to other nationally recognized winners.
