Welcome back to Chicagoland’s chilly fall season! It’s the time of year when we gather together and enjoy the season with our closest family and friends. But for Abt, we’re prepping for our busiest time of the year. But that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate our amazing staff. That’s why we’re showing off our four Star Employees of the season! Twice a year, we take the time to honor and share the…

Meet Our Spring 2023 Star Employees!
It’s that time of year where we celebrate such an integral part of what makes Abt special: our employees! While we only choose a few to showcase and celebrate biannually, every single one of our staff is part of what makes our store so great. But it’s time we spread a little love toward these special stars: Karen Carr-Dawson, Joey Pena, Mike Stolarski and Mat Szpara! …
Meet Abt’s Spring 2022 Star Employees
The snow is melting, the weather is warming and things are finally starting to look up after a tough winter. We at Abt are excited for a lot of things on the horizon, from fun giveaways (yes, plural) to future trips from the Easter Bunny. But before we dive into spring, we’d like to take a moment and thank some of our amazing staff members: Abt’s Spring 2022 Star Employees. Each of…
Abt Employees of the Year 2021
With 2022 launching off on the right foot, everyone is eager to leave 2021 in the dust. That being said, we’d like to pause and take a moment to honor what made 2021 the best for Abt: our employees. With over 1,700 people working together to accomplish our goal of complete satisfaction, it was hard to choose just four people. Every one of our employees works to keep Abt chugging along, helping…
Meet Our Fall 2021 Star Employees
If we could pick any one word to represent 2021 so far, it would be “change”. From the in-progress addition of our new expanded warehouse to continually in-flux product availability, our team of employees has never been better at rolling with the punches. Some of this year’s changes have been exciting, from new faces joining the team to new announcements and products on the way from favorite tech giants. Other adjustments have…
Meet our Spring 2021 Star Employees
To say that the last twelve months have been challenging would be way beyond an understatement. From persistent inventory issues to reduced shopper capacity and virtual work arrangements, there has been no shortage of obstacles for the retail industry. Yet through it all, we were able to have a successful year, thanks mostly to our dedicated staff. They’ve adapted to the challenges without compromising what makes Abt great. And among those 1600…
Meet Our Fall 2020 Star Employees
As we have grown through the years, the one constant has been our family. And by “family,” we mean every employee at Abt—which by current count is somewhere just north of 1,600 people. Our people are the key to our success and continued growth. Everyone here has a unique role in the complex machine that lets us provide a great shopping experience to countless customers across the nation. And while there are…
Meet our Spring 2020 Star Employees
Although Abt is just one store, more than 1500 employees work together to help keep us operating smoothly. From answering customers’ questions during an online chat, to completing one of the thousands of deliveries we perform each week, everyone has a unique role. We are the company we are because each of these employees continuously gives their best efforts. But there are always some on the team that go beyond that, who do…
Congratulations to the Fall 2019 Star Employees
Keeping Abt running smoothly day after day is a team effort in the truest sense. More than 1,500 employees call our Glenview showroom home—from the accounts payable department to our HVAC service and install crews. If there’s a job to be done, we try to do it in-house, and that takes dedication from all parties involved. Twice a year, every year, we recognize the members of our team that go above and…
Congratulations to the Spring 2019 Abt Star Employees!
From answering phone calls at the customer service desk to organizing stacks of refrigerators in the warehouse, each of our 1,500+ employees plays an important part in keeping Abt running like a well-oiled machine. We’ve built our reputation on offering an unparalleled shopping experience, which couldn’t happen without everyone at Abt contributing. Twice every year, we recognize four employees who regularly go above and beyond what is expected of them, giving their…
