Employees
Our success is made possible by over 150 team members located throughout North America, Europe and Asia, immersed in a corporate culture of education, leadership, philanthropy, team-building, and empowerment. These are the people that drive the vision and are Allyn’s most important resource.
Allyn has a long standing relationship and internship program with The Pennsylvania State University’s (Penn State) Smeal School of Business. Penn State students work with Allyn team members for one semester, learning skills and gaining experience. Many graduates return to Allyn as full-time employees. Allyn also actively recruits from top-rated business and maritime universities around the world.
All full-time Allyn personnel participate in continuing education programs, designed to ensure that our team members are the most knowledgeable in their fields. A corporate training specialist administers programs focused on both technical and soft skills. The State of Florida has twice awarded Allyn International Services, Inc. grants toward our training programs.
Allyn teambuilding events bring full-time employees, from around the globe, together to develop lasting bonds that strengthen their working relationships. Each team building event is held in a different location and has a specific theme. The events focus on leadership, empowerment and problem-solving and help promote the company vision and values.
Allyn focuses on other programs to enhance teamwork such as an employee exchange program. Full-time tenured employees are encouraged to seek a partner in another office location, jointly prepare an application, and seek admission to the program. For those team mates selected for the program, Allyn pays for travel and housing arrangements. The team mates will switch responsibilities during the exchange and learn other skills for the local market. The program has been a great success, helping to develop team members both professionally and personally.
We believe our team should stay active and healthy. Allyn sponsors team members in various marathons, walks, and other sporting events. On-site fitness centers are available at some locations and are subsidized at others. Allyn also promotes intra-office sporting events such as kickball and softball.
