Employees (Happy Employees) are the key to business success. Finding the talent required to achieve success in today’s competitive market isn’t easy. Once you get talented people in the door, how do you keep them? Truly appreciating your employee is the recipe.. but what does that really mean?
Employee appreciation can be broken down into two main categories:
As Richard Branson once said, “Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don’t want to.”
The first salient point is a simple one, you can ask why would I invest in someone who might leave the company? But the simple answer is, what happens if you don’t invest in the education of your employee and they stay at the company. Aside from the benefits of your employee being more competent, the fact that the company is willing to invest in that employee shows them that the company/management cares and believes in that employee. Believing in your employees and proving it through action will increase engagement and lower the probability of churn.
Point two – how do companies provide ongoing and recurrent recognition “employee appreciation”? Employee appreciation is another way of ensuring that the employees reach their potential. Constant feedback and open dialogue are almost always noted in exit surveys of itemsimage1 requested from employees. Bill Gates said “we all need people who will give us feedback. That’s how we improve.” The more feedback the better, and thankfully for HR managers, there are tools to help facilitate consistent feedback. Employee recognition platforms and pulse surveys are great ways to not only read into the current company sentiment but to consistently appreciate employees for the great work they do.
In conclusion, Bill Gates hits the nail on the head when he said: “I’m a great believer that any tool that enhances communication has profound effects in terms of how people can learn from each other, and how they can achieve the kind of freedoms that they’re interested in.”
Believe in your employees, appreciate your employees, invest in them and you will get results.

Explore GuideYes, at Assembly, security is a top priority. Each quarter, we have ongoing security work that is everyone’s responsibility. While we maintain a strong security posture, it was important for us to prove to our customers that we do everything we claim to do. This led us to pursue a SOC 2 Type II report that would provide evidence of our compliance with industry gold-standard security practice.

At the time of redemption (when your employees exchange their points for a paid reward) you'll pay face value. If a reward is a $10 Amazon gift card, your cost will be $10. All paid rewards are billed for on a monthly basis.
The good news is that you don't have to pay for rewards upfront because we only charge you when points are redeemed, not when they're earned.

Great question! You can customize your core values to match your organization's to boost and track alignment. You can change your currency from the 🏆 emoji (our default) to any emoji of your choice. You can swap our logo for your own. You can also set up company culture rewards such as, "Lunch with the CEO," "Buy a book on us," and so much more!
While we recommend a peer to peer set up where anyone in your organization can give or receive recognition, you can set up Assembly however you want. If you need to limit the people who can give or receive recognition, that's perfectly fine and can be done from your Admin, here.
Assembly connects to the tools your employees use every day to offer an easy, seamless experience with minimal change management.
Assembly has integrations with HCM/HRIS systems like ADP, Google, Office 365, and Slack. We also integrate with communication tools like Slack and Teams so you and your employees can access Assembly wherever they work now.
That depends on the company's permissions set up. That said, over 90% of the employees on Assembly's platform are recognized on a monthly basis. That means nearly every employee across all of our customers are receiving regular recognition from their peers, managers, or leadership. We're extremely proud of this.
They are not required. You can use Assembly without having rewards set up. However, we don't recommend it if you intend to have a high adoption and usage rate. You can always keep the costs down by offering internal culture rewards that are fulfilled by you internally.
No, you can remove allowances from anyone or everyone. It's up to you but we do recommend using points whether they're worth a real dollar value or not. Companies that use points have a much higher engagement rate even if those points don't exchange for real dollars.
