ABMP Recognized as a Top Workplace in Denver


PAC employees enjoy a break from work ... with cake!

We are proud to announce that Professional Assist Corp, ABMP’s employee-owned parent company, was named a 2019 Top Work Place according to the Denver Post. The recognition is based on an anonymous survey of employees conducted by Energage, and ABMP scored particularly well in the category “My job makes me feel like I am part of something meaningful.”

For us, the reason is simple—our members! ABMP’s mission of supporting our members, making it easier for them to succeed at what they love, and living up to our credo of expectmore is evident in looking through the feedback from our employees:

I love my job because …

“We all are proud of the quality and breadth of services we deliver to our members.”

“The people, the culture, the opportunity for growth and learning, giving back to the members.”

“Of the people I work with, and the members who I get to help every day.”
