“EOTECH has worked hard over the last few years to improve its recruiting strategy to better select employees that fit and align with EOTECH’s vision,” said Brittney Connochie. “Things like team atmosphere, accountability, rewards and recognition, and staying true to core values have built and fostered an amazing culture and will continue to be our foundation for the future.”
Brittney Connochie has guided EOTECH employees through payroll system changes, differing state laws, three acquisitions, and a leadership turnover since 2019. Connochie and her team were forced to change recruiting methods and overtime plans to ensure they complied with state laws. Connochie also took steps to improve employees’ experience by introducing infertility and diabetes management benefits. And when the leadership team turned over at the start of the year, she fought to maintain employee satisfaction during the transition through surveys and follow-through.
“Brittney’s meticulous attention to detail — coupled with her unwavering commitment to the well-being of the team — has led to an environment of increased productivity, morale and overall workplace satisfaction,” said EOTECH CEO Joe Caradonna.
Based on nominations, a committee that includes Crain’s editors, a judging panel of experienced HR professionals, and former Excellence in HR Award recipients selected the winners. EOTECH was recognized specifically for its innovative approaches in recruiting. Other categories in the awards include:
- HR Leader or Team of the Year
- Innovations in HR
- Improving Employee Well-Being
- Fostering a Culture of Learning and Upskilling
This recognition underscores EOTECH’s dedication to not only finding the right talent but also nurturing a workplace environment that supports growth, well-being, and continuous improvement.
