ATG Celebrates its 2018 Long-Term Employees

Chicago's Revolution Brewpub

Each spring for the last 12 years, ATG has honored employees with 20+ years of service by hosting a celebration in May. This year’s Double Decade event was an upbeat lunch, beer tasting, and brewery tour at Revolution Brewpub in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood. The food was great, the mood was upbeat, and the selection of craft beers such as Sun Crusher, O'Hare Oatmeal Stout, and Galaxy Hero pleased even the most finicky beer drinkers.Scroll down for PHOTO GALLERY. 

Congratulations to the Class of 2018 Double Decade employees:

  • Janice Beaudry, Disbursement Accounting, Chicago
  • Eileen Burns, Chicago Operations, Chicago
  • Kathie Butts, ATG Trust, Chicago
  • Tracy Cazeau, Closing Services, Chicago
  • Marie Duhig, Regional Company Services, Oak Lawn

The day carried extra meaning as we honored ATG's longest-term employee, Mona Stevens, who retires later in 2018 after 44 years of service. Mona was presented with a specially-designed beer growler, a few great speeches, and heartfelt hugs. In turn, Mona addressed the group with a message of gratefulness, encouraging all present to work toward fostering the special culture we enjoy and hold dear at ATG.

Thirty-nine people have been with ATG for 20 years or more:
