Custom Alarm is proud to announce it has once again been recognized as one of the Best Places to Work in Southeast Minnesota, marking an impressive milestone of 10 consecutive years receiving this prestigious honor.

The Best Places to Work program recognizes outstanding employers across the region while providing valuable insight into the practices that help organizations attract, retain, and support top talent. Participating companies complete a comprehensive 40-question survey administered by Personnel Dynamics Consulting. The evaluation measures key areas including employee retention, company growth, internal advancement opportunities, employee feedback, workplace safety, diversity in leadership, benefits, training and development, paid time off, and compensation.

Custom Alarm continues to distinguish itself among leading employers, earning strong marks in several critical areas. The company was especially recognized for its ongoing investment in employee development, including training participation, hours dedicated to professional growth, and financial resources committed to learning efforts, as well as the strength and quality of its benefits package.

“Our team is at the heart of everything we do,” said CEO Melissa Brinkman. “Earning this recognition for the 10th year in a row reflects the culture we’ve built together. We are committed to creating an environment where employees feel valued, supported, and empowered to grow. From competitive benefits to meaningful career opportunities, we strive to be a workplace where people are proud to contribute every day.”

As Custom Alarm celebrates a decade of this achievement, the company remains focused on fostering a culture rooted in collaboration, innovation, and employee well-being, continuing its mission to be an employer of choice in Southeast Minnesota.
