Atlanta Journal-Constitution Names Georgia Aquarium a Winner of the Metro Atlanta Top Workplaces 2024 Award

ATLANTA (August 18, 2024) - Georgia Aquarium has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2024 honor by Atlanta Journal-Constitution Top Workplaces.

"Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees," said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. "That's something to be proud of. In today's market, leaders must ensure they're allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That's paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends."
