2024 has been nothing short of extraordinary for ALKU, and our awards speak volumes to the year we’ve had! From recognitions showcasing our impressive financial growth, to accolades honoring our vibrant Have Fun Working Hard® culture, this year has truly set a new benchmark for our growing success.

Revenue Awards: Thriving in a Competitive Market

This year, ALKU continued to navigate a challenging market, thriving and showing consistent growth throughout 2024. We landed on several of Staffing Industry Analysts’ (SIA) prestigious lists, including Largest IT Staffing Firms, Largest Life Sciences Staffing Firms, and Fastest Growing Staffing Firms.

This year, we proudly broke into the top 50 for the first time ever, landing at #50 on SIA’s 2024 Largest Staffing Firms in the US List. Given that ALKU was founded just 16 years ago, it’s an incredible honor to stand alongside industry leaders who have been setting the standard for over three decades.

These accolades reflect our unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional service. At ALKU, it’s not just about staffing—it’s about the connections we build that inspire us every day. We truly value the relationships we create, and these awards are a testament to our dedication!

Culture Awards: Celebrating Our People and Values

At ALKU, our success goes beyond impressive revenue growth—it’s our dynamic community and thriving culture that truly make us a standout workplace. An outstanding 88% of our employees believe ALKU is a great place to work, far surpassing the 57% average at typical U.S. companies.

For the ninth consecutive year, we’ve earned Fortune’s Great Place to Work Certification, a testament to how we actively listen to employee feedback to keep improving. On top of that, we’ve secured a spot on SIA’s Best Staffing Firms to Work For list for the 14th straight year. We’re also proud to have been recognized as a Best Place to Work for our Boston, Charlotte, and Virginia offices, reflecting our commitment to creating a positive and inclusive environment across all locations. Last but certainly not least, ALKU was named #9 on Boston Business Journal’s Best Places to Work in the large category. We’ve proudly made the list every year since 2011, consecutively ranking in the top ten for an entire decade, and this year was the first one celebrated in our new and improved Andover Headquarters! 

This year, we’re thrilled to celebrate our commitment to giving back and advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) with both new and familiar accolades! ALKU has been recognized as one of Boston Business Journal’s Most Charitable Companies in Massachusetts, joining just 96 companies in the state. Additionally, ALKU’s Pride Employee Resource Group (ERG) attended the BBJ’s Business of Pride event, where we were honored as a 2024 Corporate Ally—one of only four companies to receive this recognition, marking a significant milestone for our growing DE&I initiatives. Pride is one of ALKU’s many Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) created and run by our employees to support the evolving needs of our communities, continuing to make us a best place to work across all areas.
