At Empire Office, our employees collaborate through ongoing departmental, cross-functional, management and town hall meetings. We also leverage technological platforms such as Microsoft Teams, Channels, SharePoint, Zoom, and Procore to collaborate more effectively and efficiently.
We know we exist to do more than just sell furniture and understand our purpose can go farther. We are the largest contract furnishings company in North America and our aspiration is to be the first billion-dollar dealer that provides an amazing experience for our customers and is a great place to work for our high-performing talent. We operate with a legacy mindset, proudly supporting our community as our community supports us.
Our diversity sets us apart and makes us better because we recognize it’s the uniqueness of people that informs the built space. By celebrating our differences, we understand that we all have something unique to bring to the table. We often survey our employees for their feedback on our processes and initiatives.
At Empire Office, we promote internal mobility across our organization, and ensure our employees are successful in their roles by providing them with ongoing feedback through our performance management process. We have been working on developing job levels and career paths for each department and very excited to launch this.
At Empire Office, we are unified under a common goal of upholding and adhering to the following values: Collaboration, Culture of Excellence, Creative & Innovative, and Flexible & Agile. We embed our values as part of our talent management process.
We have a social committee with volunteers across each office location who plan ongoing social and service events in and out of the office. We also have a health and wellness initiative focusing on physical, mental and financial wellbeing.
The Empire brand is built on decades of client satisfaction and a customer-first model. Our goal is to make customers for life. It’s an edict that started with our founder 77 years ago, and continues today with our current CEO, Peter Gaslow. Peter embodies our company values by leading from the top and believes in the team’s ability to go the extra mile and work together to provide true concierge service—from design through installation.
